Along with sharing best practices, the organizations will collaborate on clinician education, development and overall talent management.

“We are working closely together to ensure residents have access to high-value care locally and to further support the local leadership as they prepare to take the hospital to the next level,” said Russ Johnson, senior vice president of network development and outreach at Centura Health.

According to Joe Duerr, the CEO of Morton County Health System, the affiliation with Centura has already saved the Kansas health system roughly $200,000 for pharmacy equipment and medical supplies needed to care for patients.

Morton County Health System is the tenth independent affiliate to join the Centura Health network.
