Intermountain Health opens physical-therapy clinic Sept. 28. The new Intermountain Health Matchett Park Clinic will open Sept. 28, expanding access to physical therapy, rehabilitation and wellness services on the Western Slope. Matchett Park Clinic is located inside the new Grand Junction Community Recreation Center, 2836 Recreation Way. The clinic offers physical therapy and rehabilitation, including aquatic therapy, primary care and orthopedic-related rehabilitation services. "The clinic is designed to connect healthcare and wellness in one location, allowing patients to continue their recovery and fitness journey in a community recreation setting," said Bryan Johnson, Intermountain Health Western Colorado market president. "It represents our vision for a healthier community, where people have the resources and support they need to live their best lives." Within the physical therapy and rehabilitation services, therapists will focus on recovery after surgery, injury rehabilitation, pain management, strength and mobility improvement, and helping people return to everyday activities. "Movement is medicine. Our partnership with the CRC creates a natural bridge between physical therapy and lifelong wellness, allowing patients to transition into active, healthy lifestyles with confidence and support," said Tom O'Donnell, manager of Rehab Services for Intermountain Health. "After completing their therapy, patients can continue exercising and building strength using the recreation center's facilities or another gym of their choice." Primary-care services offered at the clinic will focus on wellness rather than acute patient needs. People will visit for wellness exams, sports physicals and annual vaccines. Intermountain Health St. Mary's Regional Hospital is the official health and wellness partner of the Grand Junction Community Recreation Center.

Surgery Partners finalizes $797M Intermountain hospital sale. By: Patsy Newitt Brentwood, Tenn.-based Surgery Partners has completed the sale of its ownership interests in its Idaho Falls, Idaho, facilities to Intermountain Health for $797 million in gross proceeds, according to a Sept. 17 news release. The deal includes Mountain View Hospital and Idaho Falls Community Hospital, values the combined facilities at about $1.15 billion, and delivered Surgery Partners $587 million in net cash proceeds at closing, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. Physician ownership of Mountain View Hospital will remain unchanged under Intermountain's leadership, and the proceeds will primarily go toward paying down debt, which is expected to improve the company's balance sheet leverage by about 30 basis points from 4.4x at the end of the second quarter. Excluding the Idaho Falls facilities, Surgery Partners expects a 50% reduction in its Medicaid payor mix, to under 2% of revenue, along with the elimination of its neonatology, obstetrics, inpatient pediatrics and retail and compounding pharmacy service lines. The company updated its full-year 2026 guidance to reflect the sale, projecting revenue of $3.08 billion to $3.18 billion and adjusted EBITDA of at least $489 million; on a pro forma basis excluding Idaho Falls for the full year, it expects revenue of $2.60 billion to $2.67 billion and adjusted EBITDA of at least $414 million. At the Becker's 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
