THE GW MEDICAL FACULTY ASSOCIATES AND
ADVENTIST MEDICAL GROUP LAUNCHES A VENTURE
(WASHINGTON, DC) – Adventist HealthCare, Montgomery County’s first and largest health system, and The GW Medical Faculty Associates (MFA), the largest independent physician group in metropolitan Washington, announced a collaboration today that will further their missions of improving the health of the communities they serve.
The new venture, which combines the strengths of The MFA and Adventist Medical Group, enables the organizations to more effectively and efficiently grow the number of Adventist’s employed physicians.
Adventist HealthCare’s five-year strategic plan focuses on physician integration and population-based health care,” said Gaurov Dayal, M.D. senior vice president & chief medical officer. “This collaboration with an experienced organization like MFA accelerates our ability to fulfill this plan.”
Federal mandates for implementation of electronic patient health records, along with healthcare reform, are prompting consolidation in the health industry,” said MFA CEO Stephen L. Badger. “This venture strengthens both organizations financially and geographically and prepares us to deliver better quality healthcare to the rapidly growing population around the D.C. area.”
Adventist Medical Group is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The GW Medical Faculty Associates. Under this agreement, all current and future Adventist Medical Group physicians and their staff will be employees of the new venture.
