Mystery remains over hospital merger plan

On Friday, Brooklyn Hospital officials submitted a plan to consolidate with Interfaith Hospital in nearby Bedford-Stuyvesant and Wyckoff Heights Medical Center—but Wyckoff Interim President Ramon Rodriguez didn't sign off on the merger, even though he helped conceive it last year.
