Gold Healthcare Welcomes Silver Physicians to Our Community of Practices
At Gold Healthcare, our primary purpose has always been to support our providers so they can offer world class care to their patients. We are committed to exploring new and innovative ways to continually achieve above and beyond that goal. As the healthcare industry evolves, our ability to expand and enter new markets is critical to our long-term success.
To that end, we are pleased to announce that Gold Healthcare and Silver Physicians are merging to become the undisputed partner of choice for practitioners throughout the United States. Gold Healthcare is a team of over 200 providers who practice out of 100 locations. Silver Physicians is a partnership of approximately 50 providers who practice out of 25 locations. By merging two of the most well-respected and clinically-advanced groups in healthcare, our combined organization will be better together as we become the most elite medical community for providers and patients.
The following are three key reasons why we’re merging with Silver Physicians:
1. We strive to deliver better patient care and increase access to care. This merger allows us to increase our number of providers, practices, and teammates without compromising quality, which will in turn allow us to elevate our patient care. We’ll be able to invest in innovative clinical technologies and create greater opportunities for advanced diagnostic and treatment options. Most importantly, we’ll increase access to care as we grow in scale and foster collaboration among the best providers in our field.
2. We strive to serve as an elite community for providers to practice. As we join forces, we’ll create forums for clinicians to collaborate and share knowledge, elevate expertise, and develop the next generation of premier physicians. This merger will allow us to develop clinician mentorship programs and invest in training and professional development. We’ll also be able to expand our research capabilities while recruiting the best providers in the country.
3. We strive to be a better home for teammates to advance their careers. Through our combined resources, we’ll be able to provide a wider range of growth opportunities and professional development as well as enhanced learning and training options. Teammates will enjoy increased flexibility within a larger organization, including a broader corporate structure, as well as additional work locations and practices to support. We’ll also increase investments in many areas of corporate support, including field operations, IT, finance & accounting, and more.
Gold Healthcare’s assurance to you: We believe we are better together, and our goal remains to continue to grow together to serve more patients. It takes all of our valuable teammates to do just that!
It’s important to note that both organizations will continue to operate independently for the next several months. Nothing will change in the immediate future, so please assume business as usual until you receive more information. Our leadership teams are working together to facilitate a seamless integration process with minimal interruption to your usual operations. We are committed to open and transparent communication, and we will give ample notice well in advance of any changes.
