OrthoIndy and Indiana Hand to Shoulder Center announced a definitive letter of intent to align practices for specialized orthopedic care in Indiana, according to a company press release.
“This alignment marks an exciting new chapter for Indiana Hand to Shoulder Center,” Tom Kaplan, MD, managing partner of Indiana Hand to Shoulder Center, said in the release. “In aligning with OrthoIndy, we aim to seize the opportunity for further growth while maintaining our focus on what matters most — providing exceptional patient-centric orthopedic care that includes the tools to regain mobility and enables the ability to live pain free.”
The practices will align to focus on patient-centered care, education and medical advancements between OrthoIndy’s 12 locations and Indiana Hand to Shoulder Center’s 10 locations, according to the release.
“This alignment works to ensure that we will continue to serve the community’s orthopedic needs as an independent physician practice, which we believe is vital to Indiana’s health care ecosystem,” John Ryan, CEO of OrthoIndy, said in the release. “In a world where we more often read headlines about health systems acquiring physician practices or physician practices selling to private equity, we believe that now more than ever independent physician practices are the key to delivering the highest quality, reasonably priced care to the communities we serve.”
