[11] The group University Pediatrics has had an exclusive contract with the Detroit Medical Center and DMC's owner, Tenet Healthcare decided that doctors from Wayne Pediatrics would lose their affiliation with the hospital and doctors with Wayne Pediatrics would not be able to treat or admit patients at the hospital.[ citation needed ] In April, 2020 Wayne State officials announced that they were taking up legal action against Tenet Healthcare.
