CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A judge will have the final say in an increasingly public contract dispute between Atrium Health and Southeast Anesthesiology.
The current contract between Southeast Anesthesiology Consultants and Atrium Health ends June 30 — just 11 days from now.
Atrium has signed a deal with Scope Anesthesiology to provide those services starting July 1.
On Monday, N.C. Business Court Judge Michael Robinson listened to nearly five hours of legal arguments centered around Southeast Anesthesiology’s request for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction against Atrium and Scope Anesthesia.
At stake is whether Southeast, an affiliate of Florida-based Mednax (NYSE:MD), will maintain its role as anesthesia provider for Atrium or if it will fold, faced with the loss of a roughly $100 million contract.
