State licensing approval to reopen Sharon Regional Medical Center could be issued within a couple of days, says Radha Savitala, CEO of nonprofit Tenor Health Foundation Sharon LLC, the hospital's new owner. "Once we get approved for the license we would hope to reopen around 48 hours later," she says. Tenor bought Sharon Regional on Jan. 22 from Steward Health Care, which is mired in bankruptcy. Steward closed the hospital on Jan. 6. The state is allowing the hospital to reopen under Steward's former license instead of requiring a new license.
