Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Health and Children’s Hospital New Orleans announced an affiliation in which two providers of pediatric healthcare in Louisiana will partner to improve the health of children across the state.
Agreement terms were finalized to establish the framework in which the two children’s hospitals will collaborate in the delivery of pediatric health services. The affiliation, which takes effect Jan. 1, 2023, creates opportunities for immediate collaboration.
The pediatric affiliation is planned to develop over two phases, with phase one focused on enhancing pediatric activities in Baton Rouge and surrounding parishes. Children’s Hospital New Orleans will be responsible for day-to-day operations of Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Health through a co-managed approach with committees comprised of board, physician and other leaders across the two organizations.
In phase two, the organizations will work together to create a statewide network for children’s specialty care, which will impact the life-long health of children and future generations of Louisianans.
