UC, L.A. County May Reopen King-Harbor Hospital

LOS ANGELES (AP) ― Troubled Martin Luther King-Harbor Hospital may have found a suitor.
 
The University of California says it's considering taking the lead to reopen the troubled South Los Angeles health care provider.

The announcement comes on the heels of a meeting between the state's public university system, county administrators and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

King-Harbor has provided only outpatient services since August, when the county was forced to close most of the hospital after its federal funding was revoked because of deadly care lapses.

University Provost Wyatt Hume said quality of care and financial and legal issues must be considered before the school makes any decision.
