Harrison County Hospital in Corydon, Ind., plans to affiliate with Evansville, Ind.-based Deaconess Health System, effective Jan. 1.
The affiliation will bring expanded resources and stronger support for patients while allowing the hospital to remain locally owned and led, according to a Dec. 1 news release from Harrison County Hospital.
It is Deaconess’ sixth affiliation of this kind with independently governed regional hospitals, a health system spokesperson said in a Dec. 4 statement shared with Becker’s.
“This affiliation allows Harrison County Hospital to remain a locally governed, county-owned hospital while gaining access to the clinical expertise, technology and resources of a larger health system,” the spokesperson said.
At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
