San Diego County Hospitals Pursuing Local Partnerships
Public hospitals in northern San Diego County are working to establish closer relationships with local physician groups. Palomar Pomerado Health recently announced the creation of a not-for-profit health care foundation called Arch Health Partners that will recruit physicians and medical groups. Meanwhile, Tri-City Medical Center's board of directors recently approved a $1 million deal with an independent outpatient surgery center called Surgical Care Affiliates.
