The partnership will start by expanding within the 50 counties OhioHealth currently serves, and eventually growing into the remaining 38 counties. 

The partnership aims to build an enhanced experience for patients and foster relationships with surgeons across the state. 

It offers physicians the opportunity to have a say in day-to-day operations and long-term strategy, according to the release.

“OhioHealth is already that partner for inpatient as well ambulatory care in more than half of the state of Ohio. However, to support our organization’s desire to grow beyond our traditional geographic areas, to meet patients where they are in their health journey, and to partner with surgeons across the state, we needed the right management partner. We feel Surgery Partners, the leading independent operator of surgical facilities, is the perfect fit,” Brian Jepson, president of OhioHealth’s central market, said in the release. 

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.
