The physicians at TGH PCSI employ a multidisciplinary approach to diagnose and treat a range of pulmonary-related conditions, focusing on preserving overall health.
Its medical experts treat conditions such as lung cancer, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, smoking-related changes, bronchitis, interstitial lung disease, pulmonary fibrosis and pulmonary hypertension.
The affiliation with TGH is expected to be a seamless transition for patients, with no required changes in their care.
Tampa General president and CEO John Couris said: “Our collaboration with TGH PCSI further extends the availability of advanced academic-based medical care to the residents of Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast.
“Together with the exceptional physicians at TGH PCSI, we will provide patients with the same high standard of clinically excellent, compassionate care they trust and depend on. At the same time, this partnership will ensure direct access to leaders in academic medicine, cutting-edge procedures and innovative research protocols aimed at achieving the best possible outcomes for our patients.”
In June this year, TGH announced the deployment of an Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) from Palantir Technologies, aimed at advancing care coordination.
