Lake Health officially joins UH
Lake Health TriPoint Medical Center
Lake Health is officially a member of the University Hospitals Health System, making the Lake County provider UH's largest addition to date.
The two organizations, which in December announced their intention to integrate, have completed the member substitution process to bring Lake Health into UH, adding multiple hospitals and ambulatory centers and more than 3,000 caregivers and 600 physicians to the Cleveland-based health system, according to a news release.
"The addition of Lake Health expands our geographic footprint and is consistent with our strategy of bringing care close to home for our patients throughout Northeast Ohio," UH CEO Dr. Cliff Megerian said in a provided statement. "It will ensure convenient access to the most advanced health care and services for patients in Lake County and surrounding communities now and in the future."
