CHA Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center Selects VEP Healthcare to Manage Its Hospitalist Services

New agreement expands the partnership with VEP, which already manages the hospital’s intensivist services

CONCORD, Calif.--()--VEP Healthcare, Inc. has contracted with CHA Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center (HPMC), a subsidiary of CHA Health Systems, a global leader in biotechnology and healthcare, to manage the hospital’s hospitalist services.

VEP collaborates closely with partner hospitals to improve core measure compliance, meet targets for patient length of stay and for care protocols and outcomes across specific disease categories such as COPD, congestive heart failure, diabetes, sepsis, pneumonia, and more. VEP hospitalist solutions also focus on enhancing hospitals’ patient admission and discharge procedures and on fostering multidisciplinary care protocols.

CHA HPMC provides quality medical and nursing care to Hollywood and its surrounding communities, embracing the area’s diverse, multicultural patient populations. CHA HPMC has a 434-bed acute care facility, including 89 skilled nursing beds. It is CHA HPMC’s mission to provide all who walk through its doors quality care in a compassionate manner.
