No. This agreement is not a merger. It is an affiliation that unifies the medical practices of RWJBarnabas Health’s medical groups and Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School around clinical care, education and research. The RWJBarnabas Health and Rutgers entities will remain separate, each with its own employees, but will be aligned to operate as a single clinical enterprise. The current agreement does not include Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey, which will become part of this integrated clinical enterprise under a separate agreement, to be negotiated, and certain other Rutgers clinical programs. In addition, the current agreement does not include Rutgers New Jersey Medical School or the clinical services that New Jersey Medical School provides at University Hospital in Newark.
