Harvard Pilgrim, Tufts Health Care to merge

WBUR reports and analyzes the implications to businesses and individual consumers.

No word yet on the new name; if they can't figure out which comes first, they could compromise and call it Brandeis Health Care.

That's why I said they should have named the T-Stop "MEDICAL CENTER."

But can you imagine the outrage from Boston Medical Center if they renamed that stop just "Medical Center?"

before the stop opened, but the T rejected it because it would cause confusion to people looking for Mass General Hospital or the Longwood hospitals. At that time, what's now Boston Medical Center was stlll called Boston City Hospital.

Today's Globe hedges with the latter headline.
