Beginning September 2021, Campbell County Health became an affiliate of
UCHealth. What does this mean for CCH, and what does this mean for Northeast Wyoming
residents? Continue reading to learn more.
Our affiliation is part of our commitment to become the first choice for
healthcare and wellness in Wyoming. Affiliation enables CCH to achieve
milestones, pursue initiatives, and achieve savings that would not be
possible without the resources of a large healthcare system like UCHealth.
What the affiliation is
A partnership where we gain the resource advantages of UCHealth
We maintain our autonomy while having a robust relationship with UCHealth
UCHealth resources enable us to keep more patients here at home and build
a local health system for patients that truly embodies
Excellence Every Day
What the affiliation IS NOT
We are NOT owned by UCHealth
We are NOT controlled by UCHealth
We are NOT sending our patients away to UCHealth
What has been accomplished so far?
In our first year of affiliation we saved $600,000 by tapping into UCHealth's
group buying power and taking advantage of significant discounts
UCHealth aided in the successful recruitment of our Chief Executive Officer,
Chief Financial Officer, and Vice-President of Human Resources
UCHealth aided CCH in the completion of a comprehensive Community Health
Needs Assessment to help guide strategic planning address our community's
most pressing needs.
This only the beginning and there is much more more to come! From modernizing
our electronic health records system, to adopting best practices across
all across the board - UCHealth is helping us fully embody
Excellence Every Day.
"UCHealth's support and resources will help us improve patient care
and keep more patients here at home. CCH is still very much a locally
owned and independent hospital - but with the benefit of having a partner
with a wealth of resources and experience by our side to support us." - Campbell County Health CEO Matt Shahan
