San Joaquin County, Dignity Health reach extension on management services
The deal, which runs from July 1 of this year to June 30 of 2028, is worth just over $5.7 million. The county and Dignity Health, which is now known as CommonSpirit, have partnered on the hospital since 2022, when the board of supervisors found that San Joaquin General could operate more efficiently with a management agreement.
The deal was originally for an 18-month period with a 10-year option. The supervisors extended it for an additional 18 months in 2023, and the current deal was set to expire on June 30 of this year.
According to a press release from San Joaquin County, Dignity Health has implemented several changes in its time acting as management, including lowering the rate of SJGH-acquired infections, raising the hospital's Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services hospital safety grade rating from an F to a C, reducing incomplete patient records from 15,000 to less than 200, and financial improvements.
"Since the implementation of the Management Services Agreement, CommonSpirit Health and St. Joseph's Medical Center have had a profound impact on both financial and quality measures at San Joaquin General Hospital," said BJ Predum, Market President of Dignity Health Central Valley. "By improving and standardizing processes, I am proud of all that we have accomplished together to enhance the health and well being of the San Joaquin County community."
Added Paul Canepa, Chair of the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors, "Since the agreement began, the hospital has made great progress in improving patient care and its finances. We're excited to keep working together to build a strong, unified healthcare system that provides excellent care to everyone—no matter their ability to pay."

SoftBank, Meta make strides in data center push with purchase of EV plant, financing plans
SoftBank and Meta are making major strides in their push to jumpstart multi-billion dollar data center projects. SoftBank, the Japanese investment holding company led by Masayoshi Son, is buying an electric vehicle plant in Ohio from major Apple supplier Foxconn, according to Bloomberg. It's a notable step for the company, which has been struggling to plan out the finances of its massive Stargate project – a joint effort by SoftBank, OpenAI, Oracle and MGX to invest $500 billion in AI infrastructure across the country.

AFP via Getty Images Meta, meanwhile, has tapped US bond giant PIMCO and alternative asset manager Blue Owl to lead its $29 billion financing for data center expansion in rural Louisiana, a source familiar with the matter told The Post. PIMCO will handle about $26 billion of debt while Blue Owl will contribute about $3 billion in equity, the source said. SoftBank, Foxconn, Meta, PIMCO and Blue Owl did not immediately respond to The Post's requests for comments. Advertisement Tech companies are racing to build powerful data centers across the nation, especially as President Trump calls for increased investment in the country. SoftBank had approached Foxconn for help with its plan to build more massive data centers in the US, people familiar with the matter Bloomberg. The sale of the EV plant is a result of those talks, according to the report. Advertisement Earlier this week, Hon Hai Precision Industry – Foxconn's flagship unit – said it had agreed to sell the facility for $375 million to Crescent Dune LLC, though it did not disclose the company behind that entity. 4 President Trump and SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son at the White House in April. AP Hon Hai's stake in the data center project would be a major win for SoftBank. The Foxconn unit was an investor in SoftBank's first venture capital fund. The unit would operate the plant and use the facility for its own AI server manufacturing business, and perhaps to host a data center, according to a Bloomberg report. Advertisement SoftBank and Foxconn earlier this year invested $735 million each into a joint venture to build data centers in the US. It is not clear whether SoftBank's investment in that partnership includes its payment for the EV plant. Meta has been working with Morgan Stanley to raise funds and find partners to back its AI push, according to Bloomberg. 4 Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg at a live recording panel for tech podcast Acquired. REUTERS The social media giant said last week that it planned to offload about $2 billion in data center assets as part of a strategy to share the costs of building these expensive facilities. Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg had pledged hundreds of billions of dollars toward the effort in July when he announced the company's superintelligence unit. The firm's first multi-gigawatt data center, called Prometheus, is expected to come online next year, Zuckerberg said last month. Another planned facility called Hyperion will be able to scale up to 5 gigawatts over the next coming years, he added.

REUTERS Local officials in Tucson, Ariz., effectively killed a $3.6 billion Amazon-linked data center project this week when they unanimously voted to pause discussions with its developers. That vote required all staff to stop work on 'Project Blue,' a data center slated to be built on 290 acres of land in Pima County. Advertisement Amazon did not immediately respond to The Post's request for comment. While the county approved the sale of the land, the project still requires approval of its development plans. Two in-person meetings about the project drew in crowds of 800 to 1,000 enraged residents, who protested the massive amounts of water and energy needed to power the data center, according to the Tucson Sentinel. The project was expected to generate $250 million in tax revenue and create 3,000 temporary construction jobs – along with about 180 permanent positions earning an average salary of $64,000, according to the developers. Their only contractual obligation, however, was to hire just 75 workers.
