About Us

University Hospitals developed a new strategy and model for health care delivery. This new approach called for University Hospitals to better meet the health care needs of a significant portion of Northeast Ohio through geographic expansion and an increase in the types of services we offer. In the process University Hospitals was transformed from a traditional, single-site academic medical center into the broad-based health system we are today.

Today, University Hospitals is one of the nation’s leading health care systems, providing patient-centered care that meets the highest standards for quality and patient safety and have received numerous awards and recognitions from some of the most prestigious institutions in the country for our leadership and exceptional patient outcomes. As an accountable care organization, we foster long-term patient-provider relationships that help promote preventive care, increase wellness and healthy behaviors, decrease emergency episodes, and prevent hospitalizations.
