UAMS, Mena Regional Health System to sign co-management agreement. By News Staff July 14, 2026 | LITTLE ROCK - The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) and Mena Regional Health System are planning to sign a co-management agreement, pending final approval by the Arkansas Department of Health. The agreement was approved on Tuesday night by the Mena City Council and the Mena Hospital Commissioners. Under the agreement, Mena Regional Health System will retain its assets, operations, and oversight of the hospital. No immediate changes to patient services, hospital staff, or daily operations will result from the agreement. This agreement will bring increased access to UAMS's world-class specialists, academic programs, and clinical research in addition to assisting the hospital in identifying opportunities to improve daily operations. UAMS and Mena Regional have collaborated for years on several key clinical and educational projects aimed at expanding specialized care and improving health in the Mena area. The Mena Regional Health System serves as an official UAMS Milk Bank Depot, allowing screened donors to drop off breast milk that is then pasteurized by UAMS for use by premature and ill infants. UAMS provides Mena Regional providers with remote access to specialized expertise through telemedicine. UAMS Regional Campuses host Mini-MASH (Medical Applications of Science for Health) camps for local high school students at Mena Regional. UAMS and Mena Regional also work closely with the University of Arkansas at Rich Mountain (UARM) to expand local healthcare career pathways, enhance rural clinical training, and improve community health services. UARM nursing and allied health students complete their hands-on clinical training at Mena Regional. "At UAMS, we are committed to collaborating with community hospitals to ensure Arkansans have access to high-quality care close to home," said UAMS Chancellor C. Lowry Barnes, M.D. "This co-management agreement with Mena Regional Health System strengthens our shared commitment to improving health outcomes in western Arkansas while enhancing access to the expertise, education and resources that UAMS can provide. We look forward to building on Mena Regional's long history of serving its community and working together to meet the healthcare needs of the region." "This co-management agreement with UAMS reflects our commitment to ensuring that the people of Polk County and surrounding rural communities have access to high-quality health care close to home," said Paul Ervin, chief executive officer of Mena Regional Health System. "Our mission is 'Patients First Always,' and this agreement will strengthen our ability to deliver on that promise by connecting our patients with the expertise, resources, and specialty care available through UAMS while continuing to provide the personalized care they expect from their local hospital." Mena Regional Health System, a municipal-owned Critical Access Hospital serving Polk County and the surrounding region, continues its longstanding mission of delivering high-quality, accessible healthcare close to home. Caring for the community since 1936 and operating as Mena Regional Health System since 2005, the organization remains dedicated to improving the health and well-being of the populations it serves through a broad spectrum of inpatient and outpatient medical services. Mena Regional provides comprehensive inpatient care, including medical, surgical, obstetrical, nursery, swing bed, and geriatric psychiatric services. The hospital also supports a wide range of outpatient services designed to meet the diverse needs of the community, including radiological imaging, respiratory therapy, a sleep lab, outpatient physical therapy, laboratory services, infusion services, a rural health clinic, and a surgical clinic. In addition, the facility operates a 13-bed emergency department to ensure timely care for urgent medical needs. UAMS is the state's only health sciences university, with colleges of Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Health Professions and Public Health; a graduate school; a hospital; a main campus in Little Rock; a Northwest Arkansas regional campus in Fayetteville; a statewide network of regional campuses; and seven institutes: the Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute, Jackson T. Stephens Spine & Neurosciences Institute, Harvey & Bernice Jones Eye Institute, Psychiatric Research Institute, Donald W. Reynolds Institute on Aging, Translational Research Institute, and the Institute for Community Health Innovation. UAMS includes UAMS Health, a statewide health system that encompasses all of UAMS' clinical enterprise. UAMS is the only adult Level 1 trauma center in the state. UAMS has 3,553 students and 1,030 medical residents and fellows, and two dental residents.

UA Board of Trustees approves UAMS plan to lease, operate Encore Medical Center in Bryant.

UA Board of Trustees approves UAMS plan to lease, operate Encore Medical Center in Bryant. By News Staff June 24, 2026 | The University of Arkansas Board of Trustees approved today a plan by the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) to lease and operate the Encore Medical Center, a 53-licensed-bed, 108,055-square-foot hospital in Bryant. The facility will become the newest hospital in the UAMS Health system, increasing UAMS's overall bed capacity and extending its clinical footprint into Saline County. "The addition of the Encore facility represents an important step in UAMS' commitment to expanding access to high-quality, specialized healthcare for Arkansans," said UAMS Chancellor C. Lowry Barnes, M.D. "This facility will allow us to better meet the healthcare needs of patients closer to where they live, strengthen our statewide presence, and advance our mission of improving the health and well-being of all Arkansans." UAMS will lease the facility from The Landes Group, a Dallas-based real estate investment firm that is expected to acquire the Encore Medical Center property from Arkansas Heart Hospital by late summer. "We are incredibly proud of the physicians, nurses, staff, and leaders who have cared for patients at Encore Medical Center and helped establish it as a trusted resource for Saline County and central Arkansas," said Jacob Robinson, president of Arkansas Heart Hospital. "As we looked ahead, we recognized an opportunity for UAMS to build on that foundation and continue serving the community in a meaningful way. Arkansas Heart Hospital remains committed to our mission and will continue to provide care in Saline County through a local clinical presence." Encore Medical Center is an acute care facility at 1901 Encore Way in Bryant. The facility was constructed by Arkansas Heart Hospital and opened in 2021 with a focus on bariatric weight loss surgery and peripheral vascular disease. The center includes emergency services, inpatient medical-surgical beds, intensive care, surgical suites, diagnostic imaging and laboratory services. The lease agreement is expected to be finalized in the coming weeks. Encore Medical Center will continue to be operated by the Arkansas Heart Hospital through Sept. 30, 2026. Patient care at Encore will continue throughout the transition. UAMS will assume full operational authority and control on Oct. 1, 2026. "Our goal is a seamless transition for Saline County," said Barnes. "The team currently at Encore Medical Center is experienced and dedicated, and we look forward to working closely with them during this transition." According to the World Population Review, Saline County's population has increased by 25% since 2010, adding more than 27,000 residents and making it one of the fastest-growing counties in the state. UAMS' expansion into Saline County aligns with its mission to provide access to healthcare beyond its Little Rock campus. UAMS currently operates regional campuses and clinical sites across Arkansas, including facilities in Fayetteville, Springdale, Bentonville, Fort Smith, Pine Bluff, Jonesboro, Texarkana, Batesville, Helena-West Helena, and El Dorado. "The addition of 53 beds will also allow UAMS to accept more transfers of critically ill patients from other hospitals throughout the state," Barnes said. "UAMS cannot currently meet patient demand at our main campus. These additional beds are critical to our mission of caring for the sickest patients in Arkansas." About Arkansas Heart Hospital Arkansas Heart Hospital is a nationally recognized, award-winning hospital dedicated to preventing, diagnosing and treating cardiovascular and related diseases. Named one of Newsweeks' World's Best Specialized Hospitals and Forbes Best Employers, it offers advanced technology and the latest in health care services - all provided by leading cardiologists and surgeons.
