Ohio High Value Network Launches With 26 Rural Hospitals

The Ohio High Value Network (OHVN) launched operations with 25 rural hospitals in Ohio and one in nearby West Virginia. It is built on a clinically integrated network (CIN) that cares for more than 2.5 million patients in more than 115 cities and towns and serves 37 of Ohio’s 88 counties. OHVN will form a Clinical Integration Committee to oversee the network’s clinical and quality initiatives, which will include one clinical representative from each member health system. The CIN is intended to drive OHVN’s quality enhancement initiatives and care coordination efforts, and to reduce administrative burdens . . .
