hospital network
Affiliated medical centers
A hospital network is a group of hospitals and healthcare facilities operating under unified management or ownership.
Networks may share administrative services, electronic records, and specialist resources across locations: The hospital network spans three counties.
Joining a network can give smaller hospitals bargaining power with insurers while raising concerns about reduced competition and higher prices.
