Gila Regional Medical Center Board of Trustees announces intention for new management partnership with Ovation for five-year term.
Silver City, New (March 13, 2025), Regional Medical Center ("GRMC") today announced that its Board of Trustees voted to finalize a management services agreement to form a new management partnership with Ovation Healthcare.
The Board's consensus to enter into a contractual agreement with Ovation comes after a thorough eight-month process of evaluating potential management partners. The GRMC Board of Trustees enlisted the assistance of an external consulting firm to help solicit responses from interested parties. GRMC received seven proposals and evaluated potential management partners based on agreed upon criteria including ability to maintain and enhance the long-term financial viability of GRMC, recruit and retain leadership and providers, and ensuring all GRMC patients receive high-quality patient care. Through this rigorous selection process Ovation Healthcare was chosen as the management partner.
