[edit]

In early June 2018, Volusia County Schools approved a $2 million, five-year partnership with Florida Hospital by a vote of 4โ€“0.[318] This made Florida Hospital the Official Healthcare Champion of Volusia County Schools.[319] It will involve the renaming of fifteen health services academies and programs at the school districts middle schools and high schools.[318] The students are being taught biomedical sciences, sport science and Emergency medical technician/paramedic classes for future jobs in the medical field.[319][320] As of a result of the partnership a meeting was held at Deltona High School, it was made up of mostly Halifax Health employees who were worried that their behavior therapy and mental health services would be restricted.[318]

On April 22, 2019, AdventHealth started donating tablet computers and printer to schools in Volusia County School District with the highest level of students being absent. The tablet computers have the hospital networks eCare app, which will allow sick students and their parents to video chat with a physician or a nurse. The first to receive a tablet computer was an elementary school in Daytona Beach, Florida. It is part of a first phase that will donate thirty-six printers and tablet computers to the school district.[321][322]

In late July 2024, the Volusia County School Board voted to extend its partnership with AdventHealth to June 30, 2028, by a vote of 3 to 0.[323] So far AdventHealth has provided 5,200 free sports physicals and 4,300 free cardiac screenings to students. The hospital network has also provided $12,000 of medical supplies.[323]

Flagler County School District

[edit]

In late July 2021, AdventHealth and Flagler County Schools signed a 5-year partnership worth $750,000 making AdventHealth the Official Healthcare Champion of Flagler County Schools.[324][325] AdventHealth will treat students mental health and it will also provide athletic trainers for Flagler Palm Coast High School and Matanzas High School.[324][325] The school district will pay AdventHealth $150,000 over five years for the cost of their athletic trainers[325] and in return the hospital network will pay the school district $10,000 for five consecutive years.[324][325]

Lawsuits

[edit]

In December 2012, three whistleblowers at Park Ridge Health sued Adventist Health System for fraud.[328][329] Later in 2013, a fourth whistleblower who was a former senior health-care executive at Adventist Health System sued. The hospital network was being accused of violating the Stark Law and the False Claims Act.[329][330] When the lawsuits were filed the United States Department of Justice, Government of North Carolina, Government of Florida, Government of Tennessee and Government of Texas intervened. Adventist Health System agreed to settle the lawsuits for a total of $118.7 million on September 21, 2015. $115 million went to the United States government,[331] $3.48 million went to Florida, $198,453 to North Carolina, $66,897 to Tennessee and $4,711 to Texas.[330] This was the largest settlement that a hospital network has ever paid.[330][332]

On August 30, 2019, AdventHealth was sued by Oviedo Medical Center for trademark infringement, unfair competition and cybersquatting. Ovideo Medical Center believed that the name for AdventHealth's new ER would confuse the public, attorneys for AdventHealth disagree. The judge that heard the case dismissed it on technical grounds and Oviedo Medical Center was given the chance to refile by November 12. They did so before the deadline.[333][334] On December 20, 2020, the lawsuit was settled with AdventHealth and its ER was renamed AdventHealth ER.[335]

On May 28, 2020, AdventHealth sued California attorney Michael Weiss and his law firm, it also sued Tomax Capital Management Inc. and its CEO Yehoram Efrati. They failed to deliver 10 million N95 masks to AdventHealth valued at $57.5 million. AdventHealth asked Michael Weiss to return the money, he returned only $55.5 million and told AdventHealth that Tomax Capital Management Inc. had the remaining $2 million. In their lawsuit AdventHealth claims that the defendants knew that the masks were not available and conspired to keep the money.[336][337] On August 3, AdventHealth told a Florida federal judge that the four defendants agreed to commit fraud and that it caused injury to AdventHealth in Florida giving the court authority over them. Michael Weis and his law firm asked the Florida federal judge to dismiss the claims that it is responsible for the $2 million.[338] On July 22, Michael Weiss and Tomax Capital Management Inc. CEO Yehoram Efrati told the Florida federal judge that they can not be sued, since they personally had no connection to the deal.[339] On October 13, Tomax Capital Management Inc. asked the Florida federal judge to dismiss the majority of the lawsuit, blaming Michael Weiss and his law firm.[340] On February 23, 2021, U.S. District Judge Paul Bryan denied the requests by the defendants to dismiss the lawsuit against them. On March 2, a Florida federal judge dismissed the lawsuits against Michael Weiss and his law firm, one day after they agreed to resolve the claims with AdventHealth.[341][342] On March 8, U.S. District Judge Paul Byron agreed to stay the case until October 12, when Tomax Capital Management Inc. and its CEO Yehoram Efrati would have to make final payments to AdventHealth under an agreement that was signed on March 3. On April 16, AdventHealth asked a Florida federal judge to award it $1.5 million, plus $10,573 in interest and attorney fees after Tomax Capital Management Inc. defaulted on its first payment to AdventHealth.[343][344] On May 12, 2021, U.S. District Judge Paul Byron ruled in favor of AdventHealth after Tomax Capital Management Inc. and its CEO Yehoram Efrati failed to make its first payment of $300,000, to AdventHealth on April 12.[345]
