Marshall, Mo.-based Fitzgibbon Hospital will employ providers from Missouri Valley Physicians, also in Marshall, effective Jan. 2.
The two organizations will share the same "management and goals," according to a Sept. 20 news release from the hospital. Combining resources is a step designed to help the entities navigate the challenges of rural healthcare.
Patient care will remain unchanged, but the physician group will transition to Fitzgibbon's medical record system.
