Providence and dozens of doctors at a hospital in Portland, Oregon, have reached a tentative agreement after 27 days of strike

Hospitalists and palliative care physicians at Providence’s largest hospital in Oregon reached a tentative contract agreement with the health system late Wednesday, a deal that could end the largest health care strike in state history if workers sign off.

An apparent breakthrough in the nearly month-long strike at Providence hospitals was reached Tuesday night as both Providence officials and the Oregon Nurses Association announced a tentative deal at all eight locations affected.
