Johnson City, Tenn.-based Ballad Health launched the Appalachian Highlands Orthopedic Network in partnership with Germantown, Tenn.-based Campbell Clinic, 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.
“We have a responsibility to ensure families across the Appalachian Highlands have access to the highest quality care, delivered by experienced specialists they can trust,” Eric Deaton, Ballad Health’s COO, said in a news release. “This network expands access to nationally recognized orthopedic expertise while strengthening our ability to recruit and retain top physicians who want to practice in a collaborative, high-performing environment.”
