The Power of We
We are leveraging the Power of We through a newly-integrated academic health system that includes the Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine at Marshall University; its faculty practice plan Marshall Health; and four hospitals: Cabell Huntington Hospital, St. Mary’s Medical Center, Hoops Family Children’s Hospital and Rivers Health.
Through that collaboration, we are caring for our community in more than 40 counties throughout West Virginia, southern Ohio and eastern Kentucky.
Moving Medicine Forward at Marshall
After more than 45 years of partnership, we took the next step on October 1, 2023, to create a true academic health system, known as Marshall Health Network, Inc. The integration of Marshall University, Marshall Health and Mountain Health Network represents a major milestone that will transform health care in our region.
Marshall Health Network encompasses our visionary approach to health care driven by strategic, shared decision making and new opportunities for collaboration. Marshall Health Network will become the change agent and take a more holistic approach to health and wellbeing, better aligning how we deliver health care, how we train future health care professionals and how we engage with our communities.
Under the Marshall Health Network banner, we believe that everyone will benefit from the collective Power of We:
• Expanded Specialized Services: The academic health system brings a wealth of specialized services and expertise that will complement and enhance our existing capabilities. This means that our patients will have access to an even broader range of comprehensive medical care.
• Advanced Technology and Infrastructure: Access to state-of-the-art medical innovations translates into improved diagnostic accuracy, more effective treatment options and an overall better patient experience. Our new medical office building on our Health Sciences Campus in Huntington will open in late 2024.
• More Research Opportunities: Our new academic health system creates more interdisciplinary collaboration between health care professionals, scientists, researchers and educators. This ensures patient access to clinical trials and the latest evidence-based treatments. Through our new relationship with the med-tech start up, Intermed Labs, medical device innovations are already taking shape.
• Enhanced Education & Training: Through the School of Medicine, we are leading the way in dynamic graduate and professional programs, like MD, PhD and Physician Assistant. Additionally, thanks to partnerships with Logan Regional Medical Center, Holzer Health System and Rivers Health, three of our 28 residency and fellowship training programs are dedicated to preparing surgeons, internists and psychiatrists to serve rural communities.
