1. St. Joseph’s Health is paying about $25 million for stake in an ASC owned by Syracuse (N.Y.) Orthopedic Specialists. The transaction gives the Syracuse, N.Y.-based hospital a 25 percent share in Syracuse Orthopedic Specialists’ One Day Surgery Center. The other 75 percent will be owned by 35 physicians who work out of the practice.
