Reno-based Spine Nevada has entered into a new partnership to develop a musculoskeletal platform in the state.
Spine Nevada and its affiliated brands, Swift Urgent Clinic and Vein Nevada, teamed with Phoenix-based Healthcare Outcomes Performance Company to form HOPCo Nevada, which will create a platform for integrated musculoskeletal and vein care.
"Our model has been focused on providing comprehensive specialty care to our community by offering all of the necessary spine, musculoskeletal and vein services," James Lynch, MD, SpineNevada's president said in an April 29 news release.
HOPCo Nevada will have access to HOPCo's clinical and quality infrastructure, IT tools and claims analytics to partner with health systems, provider groups and payers.
"HOPCo's impressive array of tools, experience and teams will allow us to work even more closely with other physicians in the community and continue to reduce costs and improve patient outcomes," Dr. Lynch said.
SpineNevada focuses on minimally invasive care and patient wellness, and has centers in Reno, Carson City and Las Vegas.
The partnership will help grow the practice's spine, orthopedic, sports medicine and vein programs in Nevada.
