Steward Health Care System will send its most seriously injured trauma patients to two Boston hospitals operated by Partners HealthCare System under a deal struck between the state's two largest health care providers.
Steward, a for-profit chain that operates 10 community hospitals, has been sending critically injured patients from its emergency rooms to five Level 1 trauma centers in Boston or to hospitals in Worcester and Providence. The patients are often victims of shootings or car crashes.
The Boston Globe reports that under the new arrangement, Steward will send most patients to Partners-owned Massachusetts General Hospital or Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.
Doctors from Partners will also work with Steward hospitals to set up their own trauma centers that can treat patients with less serious injuries.
