Evanston, Ill.-based NorthShore University HealthSystem is joining the Mayo Clinic Care Network to provide NorthShore patients with access to medical resources and experts from both systems.
NorthShore is the most recent health system to join the Care Network. Membership is a non-ownership relationship. Healthcare organizations in Arizona, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire and Florida are part of the network, including NCH Healthcare System in Naples, Fla., Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, N.H., Sparrow Health System in Lansing, Mich., and Heartland Health in St. Joseph, Mo.
As part of the agreement, patients at NorthShore's Neurological Institute, Kellogg Cancer Center and Cardiovascular Center will benefit as leading specialists consult with Rochester, Minn.-based Mayo Clinic experts on complex diagnosis and treatment plans. NorthShore physicians will also facilitate visits to Mayo Clinic when necessary and will offer follow-up care and expertise close to home for those patients who refer themselves to Mayo Clinic.
In addition, NorthShore physicians will have access to Mayo Clinic's electronic medical record and advanced data collection systems to develop best care practices, enhanced clinical-decision making and improved patient outcomes.
