Germantown, Tenn.-based Campbell Clinic is partnering with Johnson City, Tenn.-based Ballad Health to launch the Appalachian Highlands Orthopedic Network, the health system said June 3.
The partnership will provide patients with greater access to orthopedic subspecialties and connects more than 60 orthopedic physicians and staff in the region.
Appalachian Highlands Orthopedic Network was formed in response to increased demand for orthopedic care, especially among aging populations. The network is designed for long-term sustainability by creating a stronger environment for physicians and enhancing clinical collaboration.
“There is exceptional orthopedic care across the region,” John Crockarell, MD, chief of staff at Campbell Clinic, said in a news release. “This partnership allows us to extend our expertise by working alongside local physicians – sharing knowledge, supporting complex care and helping ensure patients across the region receive the best possible outcomes.”
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
