Jackson Health asks for HCA trauma center to close
The Miami Herald, January 17, 2013
Ratcheting up the stakes in Miami-Dade's hospital wars, Jackson Health System has filed two petitions with the state demanding a hearing to consider its belief that the license for trauma operations at Kendall Regional Medical Center was granted illegally and should be revoked.

Kendall Regional's opened in November 2011.
