Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS), Tenet Healthcare Corporation (“Tenet”) (NYSE:THC) and United Surgical Partners International (USPI), a Tenet subsidiary, announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement for a joint partnership to create an orthopedic care center in West Palm Beach, FL.
Located in a new building to be constructed in West Palm Beach adjacent to Tenet’s Good Samaritan Hospital, the new center will offer outpatient orthopedic care including diagnostics services, ambulatory surgery, rehabilitation, and sports performance programs. The facility will be staffed by HSS physicians, some of whom also will continue to serve at the HSS main campus in New York City.
“Many Florida residents travel to HSS in New York for the highest quality musculoskeletal care,” said Louis A. Shapiro, president and CEO of HSS. “We are delighted to be making that same top quality care more convenient to communities in South Florida where quality of life is so highly prized."
