CommonSpirit Health and University of Utah Health have announced a strategic clinical alliance to enhance patient access to high-quality medical care across several CommonSpirit hospitals in Utah. This partnership will allow patients at five CommonSpirit hospitals — Holy Cross Hospital Davis, Holy Cross Hospital Jordan Valley, Holy Cross Hospital Jordan Valley West, Holy Cross Hospital Mountain Point, and Holy Cross Hospital Salt Lake — to benefit from the expertise of University of Utah Health's renowned physicians and providers. The collaboration aims to innovate health care delivery along the Wasatch Front, a major metropolitan region in north-central Utah, giving patients increased access to high-performing, world-class medical care close to home.

“We look forward to welcoming University of Utah Health providers to our hospitals and working alongside them as we improve population health and build a path to more accessible care along the Wasatch Front and beyond,” said Andrew Gaasch, president of the CommonSpirit Mountain Region.

With more than 26,000 faculty and staff, University of Utah Health is the only academic health care system in the state of Utah and provides patient care for the people of Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana and much of Nevada. It is also the training ground for many of Utah's physicians, nurses, pharmacists, therapists, other health care professionals and the next generation of researchers and scientists.
