TRENTON - Dozens of hospitals in New Jersey that have been treating coronavirus patients will be getting a large cash infusion from the federal government, which is providing billions of dollars to hospitals hardest hit by the pandemic.
The federal Department of Health and Human Services says 53 of the hardest hit hospitals are in the Garden State and will share a total of $1.7 billion in federal funding.
The amount is the second largest given to any state, exceeded only by the amount going to health providers in New York. The federal department said it is distributing $10 billion to 395 hospitals around the country that
