Our region's healthcare is among the top in the nation. With two large integrated healthcare delivery systems (Mountain States Health Alliance, Wellmont Health System) and an array of specialty hospitals, the region is capable of not only meeting the healthcare needs of the people throughout the region, but also the needs of those who travel hundreds of miles to receive exceptional care. With two Top 100 Heart centers and a Top 100 ICU center, the region has established itself as a leading area for quality healthcare. Moreover, innovative advancements such as the addition of a new pharmacy school at East Tennessee State University combined with the ongoing expansion of existing healthcare facilities and the Med-Tech Corridor continue to fuel the rapid growth of the healthcare sector in the region.
