The partnership is designed to increase access to care for some of the sickest patients. KGH’s oncology program now offers consultations and medical services in Prosser. PMH is also offering nearby office space for KGH oncologists Jose Ness, MD, and Stephen Iacoboni, MD, to meet with patients for a half day each month.
PMH now offers lab testing, exams, X-rays, CAT scans, ultrasounds, blood transfusions and some injections as support for chemotherapy, which the hospital does not provide.
