“These practices have been part of our system for quite some time, and now they all share the same name,” said Robert Smanik, DKH president and CEO. “We feel that the name change better reflects our integrated, seamless delivery of care, and the universal access to our entire system.”
Smanik said that the approximately 52,000 patients of these practices were notified in December of the new name. “Nothing else has changed about the practices, and no action is required by our patients,” he added.
