Ballad Health plans to make a substantial investment at Johnson City Medical Center Inc.

"The recent visit marks the third consecutive survey in which the state cited zero deficiencies for the region’s Level 1 Trauma Center. Additionally, the survey comes after a peer-reviewed study in a national publication found that the JCMC’s Level 1 Trauma Center has “saved more lives." According to the report, specific points of strength include strong physician and administrative leadership, a focus on trauma research and expansion of neurosurgical coverage, among numerous others."
