The Ohio State Health Network is a group of hospitals and healthcare facilities that have come together with a clear mission to focus on working together with their medical staff to improve the health of the communities they serve. The members of the network will concentrate their efforts on establishing programs and linkages that enhance the coordination, accessibility and cost effectiveness of the care provided in their communities. Healthcare is changing.
Technology continues to advance.
There is a new focus on wellness and disease prevention. Managed care is here and has significantly changed how we do business. Managed care has also brought a need for increased data collection and quality improvement and tracking. The list of changes goes on and on. And the reality is that today it is virtually impossible for any one hospital to keep pace with these changes and still assure their community has access to a broad range of quality, cost-effective care.
