In the middle of a pandemic, a hospital serving one of the poorest urban areas in the country was in financial jeopardy. It was a part of the Albert Einstein Healthcare Network, a 150-year-old health care service dedicated to the community of Philadelphia. A merger deal was struck with another health care network, one that would sustain the hospital for the long term. But then the government tried to block the deal. Einstein turned to a team of lawyers from Hogan Lovells for help, including antitrust specialists and litigators with roots in the community of Philadelphia. Against the odds, and a 19-year FTC winning streak in these cases, they fought to prove that competition was alive and well, and saving this health care system was critical to securing a lifeline to the community. This is the case of The Federal Trade Commission et al v. Thomas Jefferson University and Albert Einstein Healthcare Network.
