OHSU and Legacy Health have mutually agreed to terminate their plans to integrate their organizations [20]. This decision comes after a period of review and discussion, and further details regarding the reasons for the termination were not immediately available in the search results [20]. However, a review board was considering a recommendation regarding state approval of the proposed merger in late March [19]. Concerns were raised by critics about potential cost increases and by supporters who believed it would improve care [19]. The United Food and Commercial Workers union opposed the deal [19].
