Georgia’s Hospitals Form Stratus Healthcare

Circle Connections: Mergers & Acquisitions A group of 23 hospitals in central and south Georgia have formed an alliance to pool resources, coordinate information and manage population health in the region. The new organization is a not-for-profit limited-liability corporation named Stratus Healthcare and was conceived as a way for the providers to collaborate while remaining independent. It grew out of the April 2012 partnership between Central Georgia Health System, Macon, and Tift Regional Health System, Tifton. This was reported by modernhealthcare.com on July 23, 2013.
