Optum is unbundling Crystal Run and buyers should ask why

Optum confirmed in late June it is negotiating with several New York health systems to sell orthopedic, general surgery, and urology practices attached to Optum Medical Care and Crystal Run Healthcare, the 375-clinician Hudson Valley group acquired in February 2023. Letters of intent are signed or in negotiation; closings are targeted by year-end 2026. Optum says it will keep, for now, primary care, pediatrics, and ambulatory medical specialties across the state.
