The institutions will create a joint pediatric heart program that will provide full spectrum congenital cardiac and heart disease diagnosis and treatment at two locations, according to an April 27 joint news release from the health systems.

“Our shared vision is one program offered at two sites to provide patients with the right care in a location close to home,” Glen Van Arsdell, MD, UCLA Health chief of congenital cardiovascular surgery and future chief of the joint program, said in the release. “We seek to capitalize on our strengths, integrate data and technology and provide seamless, convenient access to care.”

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
