The partnership would involve Santa Barabara, Calif.-based Sansum becoming part of Sutter, a 23-hospital system, with plans to increase access to primary care and outpatient multispecialty care that are in high demand in the region.
Sansum has 20 locations and more than 300 providers across various specialties, according to its website. The organizations aim to formalize the partnership in the coming weeks.
“Increasing access to much-needed primary care and specialty services is core to Sutter’s community-focused mission and vision,” President and CEO Warner Thomas said. “Sutter Health has a long history of working closely with medical group physicians to meet the needs of patients and communities, including helping to grow physicians and services at places like Palo Alto Medical Foundation and Sutter Gould. We look forward to doing the same with Samsun to invest in and bring more high-demand services and physicians to the central coast.”
