We exist to make healthcare better.
We exist to make healthcare better.
MedOne Healthcare Partners is a team of physicians, advanced practice clinicians, and administrative staff who are united by a single purpose—to make healthcare better. It’s been our mission from day one, and we are relentless in our pursuit to improve the delivery of high-quality care for our patients and our partners.
How we started
In 2000, MedOne was founded by a physician and an engineer who saw how hospital-based medicine could positively impact clinical quality, efficiency, and patient satisfaction. They were early adaptors to a specialty that has transformed inpatient care.
Our first hospital partner was OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital, and we continue to provide hospital medicine services on many units there including dedicated, specialized units we’ve helped develop to better serve patients. Today, we partner with many hospitals across Ohio, including community and critical access hospitals that have diverse clinical environments.
How we’ve grown
Our practice has expanded to include care immediately before and after hospitalizations, which helps ensure continuity of care and better care transitions. We provide medical services in long-term acute care and inpatient rehabilitation hospitals as well as nearly 100 skilled nursing, assisted living, and independent living facilities.
Since our founding, MedOne has remained an independent, physician-owned and -led practice, which allows us to be flexible and agile to meet the everchanging needs of our patients and partners.
We’re honored to be designated a Best Place to Work by Columbus Business First every year since 2019.
