Des Moines, Iowa-based MercyOne Medical Center has ended its partnership with anesthesia services provider, Medical Center Anesthesiologists, according to a May 15 report from NBC affiliate WHO 13.
Medical Center Anesthesiologists has provided care in the area for over 50 years, with 40 physicians and CRNAs on staff.
“MercyOne Des Moines Medical Center is committed to providing exceptional care and experience to our patients. Following extensive discussions with Medical Center Anesthesiologists, it has become necessary to transition to a new partner for anesthesia services in Des Moines,” a MercyOne spokesperson told WHO 13. “We welcome MCA clinicians to continue to provide services through a new relationship.”
