Activity 2

Sanford Clinic has 901 physicians representing 70 specialties. Supporting the five Centers of Excellence of the Sanford integrated health system, Sanford Clinic physicians provide and clinical teams provide services in Cancer, Women's, Heart and Vascular, Children's, Surgery and Trauma, Neuroscience/Orthopedics and Primary Care. The Sanford Clinic Cancer Services include a multidisciplinary team of experts and a pinnacle service in Head and Neck Cancer with NIH funded research in HPV. Women's services span the entire clinical services spectrum and integrated medicine services including a Medical Spa. The physician experts provide urogynecology, reproductive endocrinology, gynecology/oncology, genetic counseling and maternal fetal medicine subspecialty care. Another pinnacle service is developing in this service line - a regional Fetal Care Center which includes diagnostic services and fetal surgery. The Heart and Vascular service has grown to 16 interventional, invasive, general cardiologists and vascular surgeons in Sioux Falls and 19 in Fargo. The strong clinical research program and preventive focus with screenings programs all provide the foundation for a new Heart Hospital set to open early in 2012.Surgical Care for the Sanford Clinic is performed by nine surgeons in Sioux Falls and 17 in Fargo. Bariatric, trauma and general surgery as well as surgical oncology care, and a strong breast cancer program, GI cancer program, and lung cancer program fall within this area of expertise.General pediatric and subspecialty pediatric physicians support the Children's Hospital and regional outreach services and national pediatric care. Additional growth continues in neuroscience and orthopedics clinical services, sports medicine, general and subspecialty care. A majority of the rural clinics reside in counties designated by the Department of Health and Human Services as medically under-served areas. In each of its outlying locations, the clinic provides primary care services to the community. In many communities, the clinic is the sole provider of physician services. Additionally, in order to improve the breadth, access and integration of care available in these outlying rural communities, Sanford medical specialists reach out to provide part-time services which would not otherwise be available to regional clinics, other hospitals, Public Health Service, and Indian Health Service locations. The clinics offer a full range of medical specialties. Sanford operates 10 walk-in clinics and 2 convenient clinics, which treated over 199,000 walk-in patients and also owns and operates the region's largest provider of home health care with over 54,500 skilled visits per year.

Activity 3

Sanford Health Network supports community healthcare facilities as they provide care close to home through the 27 hospitals and 12 long term care homes, 18 assisted and congregate living facilities across South Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska and North Dakota. Sanford Health supports a Network of owned, leased, managed and associate facilities to ensure that necessary health care services across a broad range of medical and surgical specialties are delivered locally to the broad service area.Sanford Health Network's commitment to local healthcare delivery is clearly evident in its community-based leadership and local Board involvement. Additionally, technology deployment in the form of the health system's fully integrated clinical and financial information system, called docZ, remains a priority. Sanford Health Network is adding a new hospital in Aberdeen, SD and is working on the replacement of the medical facility in Thief River Falls, MN and several long term care facilities in two communities in South Dakota.
