Intermountain Health is partnering with Tampa-based Shriner’s Children’s for pediatric care in Nevada, the Salt Lake City-based health system said March 5.
The organizations signed a letter of intent to form a strategic affiliation for patients. Under that agreement Shriner’s Children’s will own and operate an independent pediatric orthopedic clinic within Intermountain’s Badura Clinic in Las Vegas which is scheduled to open in the summer. Shriner’s will also be the provider of record for orthopedic services and provide orthopedic resources and strategic expertise to the Intermountain Health Nevada Children’s Hospital.
“This affiliation reflects our shared belief that children and families deserve the very best care, close to home,” Intermountain Health regional president Mitch Cloward said in the release. “By bringing together Intermountain’s resources, clinical expertise, and deep commitment to community health with the specialized capabilities of Shriners Children’s, we’re strengthening a model of care that improves access, supports families, and helps kids get the right care when they need it most.”
