Sahalie Donaldson at City& State reports 32BJ Service Employees International Union (SEIU), which represents tens of thousands of Property Service Workers, is launching a six-figure media campaign against NewYork-Presbyterian, slamming the City’s largest Private Hospital System for what they characterize as unnecessarily costly services.  A TV spot set to run on NY1, CNN and Bloomberg TV charges the hospital is saddling New Yorkers with “sky high prices” for routine services despite receiving millions in tax breaks.  A mobile billboard truck will be parked outside of various hospital facilities over the next few weeks, displaying the video on a continuous loop.  Digital ads are also slated to run across Social Media.  The campaign is the latest salvo in the conflict between 32BJ and the hospital.  The Union dropped NewYork-Presbyterian from its Health Fund Network starting January 2022, arguing Members were being charged higher costs for the same procedures compared to other City Hospital Systems.
