Hospitals Win Supreme Court Case
Yesterday, June 5th, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the three consolidated pension cases, including Saint Peter's, affirming the right of religiously-affiliated organizations to exempt themselves from ERISA requirements for funding, reporting, and insuring their pension plans.
