Officials from Temple University Health System, which operates Northeastern Hospital in Philadelphia, have agreed to delay for 30 days their plan to convert it into an outpatient-care facility by July 1, said state Rep. John Taylor. The agreement will give local elected leaders a chance to analyze Temple's decision to close Northeastern and to offer possible alternatives.
