21-WFMJ Newsroom

This week, after months of speculation, Steward Healthcare filed for bankruptcy.  The move was not unexpected, but it leaves questions about what its impact will be on the future of healthcare in the Valley. Will hospitals remain open? Will nurses unions remain? Could another hospital system move in and take over? 

In this week's The Outcue, assistant news director Justin Mitchell and anchor Madison Tromler discuss what they've been hearing, who they've been talking to and what the sentiment is for those who this move will affect the most. 

The Outcue is the term for the last few words of a news story before it's over. We know that the end of what you see on television is often only the beginning of the story. This is The Outcue.
