Burbank, Calif.-based Providence Health & Services of Southern California has established a joint venture with five medical groups in the Los Angeles area to form Providence Partners for Health, according to a system news release.
Physicians will lead and govern the JV, and physicians who join the network will share quality data, receive feedback on performance from physician colleagues and demonstrate adherence to PPH-developed care guidelines with the goal of improving outcomes for patients.
“We believe this is a very creative solution that enhances the Providence mission, our physicians’ practices and the care we provide together for our patients at a time when complex issues are changing the face of healthcare,” Kerry Carmody, COO for Providence, said in the release.
