And it came from 6 local health systems: Jefferson, Temple, Christiana Care, Main Line Heath, and Cooper.
Shortly after Hahnemann announced its closing, Tower Health and Drexel Medical College said it would purchase the residencies for $7.5 million.

Medicare, which pays for the doctors' training, has objected to a bankruptcy sale.
No word on whether it will intervene on this bid
