Cook Children's may manage hospital in Waco, TX
Fort Worth Star-Telegram, April 13, 2009
Cook Children's Health Care System is negotiating with Scott & White Healthcare to manage a new regional children's hospital in Waco, TX. The combined resources would take the Cook Children's network into Central Texas and give the longtime Fort Worth institution access to teaching resources through Scott & White's partnership with the Texas A&M University Health Science Center College of Medicine. The hospital systems are also negotiating a broader agreement to share coordination and delivery of pediatric care, officials said.
