Summa Health System recruits 26 Ohio cardiologists

Northeast Ohio Cardiovascular Specialists has entered into a five-year contract to join Summa Physicians Inc., the physician-practice arm of Summa Health System. "We feel like we're stabilizing the cardiology supply and creating a model that makes it more attractive to come to Akron, Ohio, so we can not only retain the people we have but also recruit new ones," SPI President T. Clifford Deveny, MD, told the Akron Beacon-Journal. The doctors also gain efficiencies with the deal, as well as salaried positions, said NOCS representatives.
