Concerns about religious restrictions on care helped to block a big hospital merger in California.

of two sectarian hospital chains in Northern California, asserting that the deal had the"potential to increase health costs, and potentially limits access and availability of healthcare services.”

Although Becerra didn’t refer explicitly to the religious limits on the hospitals’ services in his announcement Thursday rejecting the merger, those limits were among the concerns cited by consumer groups that filed objections to the deal, such as Health Access Calfornia and the ACLU of Northern California. No hospitals were to be shuttered after the merger, suggesting that Becerra’s reference to “access and availability” of healthcare turned on religious strictures.
