San Diego Area Health System Merges With Medical Group
April 12, 2010
Palomar Pomerado Health, a two-hospital system in northern San Diego County, has merged with a medical group consisting of 43 physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants, according to a report by the San Diego Tribune.
The medical group has changed its name to Arch Health Partners from the Centre for Healthcare and is expected to add 100 doctors.
Palomar Pomerado's rival, Tri-City Healthcare District, has sued the system for planning to open clinics in supermarkets that are allegedly in Tri-City's exclusive territory.
