OBHG is excited to welcome Mercy Medical Center in Springfield, MA to our growing network! OBHG will provide full-time, 24/7 OB hospitalist coverage and establish a dedicated OB Emergency Department (OBED), starting in July 2025.
Hospital leadership anticipates this partnership will enhance quality and safety, support local OB practices, reduce reliance on locum tenens, and strengthen collaboration with certified nurse midwives (CNMs). This initiative also aims to provide inpatient support, enabling physicians to focus more on outpatient care.
Mercy Medical Center currently handles approximately 860 deliveries and 900 triage visits annually, making this collaboration a pivotal step toward advancing care for women and families in the community.
This program will be our fifth partnership in Massachusetts and eighth partnership with Trinity Health.
This is the 34TH OBHG program to start in 2024! OBHG looks forward to partnering with Mercy Medical Center and making a meaningful difference in the lives of their physicians, women, and babies in their community.
