WARREN –The sounds of silence are deafening as Forum Health approaches the one-year mark Tuesday of its Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing. ‘‘It’s status quo. There’s no update,’’ Forum spokesman Vince Bevacqua said Friday about the system’s rocky road through Chapter 11 bankruptcy, for which it filed a year ago Tuesday, March 16. ‘‘I cannot discuss specific opportunities that we may or may not be pursuing,’’ Kevin Gwin, spokesman for Nashville, Tenn.-based Ardent Health Services, wrote in an e-mail Friday when asked if the for-profit system still was interested in buying the nearly 4,000-worker Forum. Ardent has been identified as the lone bidder for Forum by local union leaders, although neither Bevacqua nor Gwin have confirmed the company’s interest. Union leaders representing roughly 3,500 hourly workers didn’t return phone calls seeking comment in general and specifically about Ardent’s role, if any.
