“UVA has an outstanding track record of pediatric heart surgery outcomes that surpasses the national average,” said K. Craig Kent, MD, CEO at UVA Health. “We are thrilled to be collaborating with our colleagues at Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU, combining our expertise to care for more families in need of specialized heart care for their children.”
The two facilities are ranked among the nation’s top children’s hospitals by U.S. News and World Report.
Both hospitals offer pediatric intensive care, acute care, cardiology and support services. This collaborative approach will also combine the volume of the most complex surgical cases among the teams.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
