Partnership with Baptist Memorial Health Care

The College of Osteopathic Medicine is part of the Baptist Memorial Health Care (BMHC) system which is one of the largest health care systems and the largest provider of Medicaid in the region. Baptist offers a full continuum of care to communities throughout the Mid-South and consistently ranks among the top integrated health care networks in the nation.

BAPTIST MEMORIAL HEALTH CARE

As one of the largest, faith-based health care systems in the nation, Baptist Memorial Health Care (BMHC) is embedded in the mission and success of the BUCOM. Baptist has invested its resources and expertise to launch the BUCOM, and has firmly established entities to provide enhanced support, education, and opportunities for its students. Baptist Clinical Research Institute is the BUCOM’s system affiliate and partner in achieving our primary research initiatives. Baptist Medical Group is the BUCOM’s system affiliate and partner in developing clinics. Baptist Memorial Medical Education department is the BUCOM’s system affiliate and partner in achieving our Graduate Medical Education (GME) initiatives.

Baptist’s potential as a partner in a shared goal of building a strong, viable, influential College of Osteopathic Medicine cannot be overstated, as both will be guided by Baptist’s mission: In keeping with the three-fold ministry of Christ —Healing, Preaching and Teaching — Baptist is committed to providing quality health care.
