SUNY Downstate has finally gotten out of the pretend ER business at Long Island College Hospital (LICH) in Brooklyn.

On Friday, a new owner, NYU Langone, will take over what has been called a clinic, an emergency department (ED), a "walk-in" ER or various other terms that don't encompass the little medicine room SUNY ran to keep up the "continuity of care" pretense at LICH, which used to be a hospital.

NYU's interim "ED" will also not be a hospital.
