Plans are underway for Samaritan Health Services to affiliate with MultiCare Health System, and Samaritan leaders are inviting the public to learn more at a series of upcoming town halls across the region.
All of the town halls are full, so a new date was added for the valley region: Tuesday, Nov. 25, at Boulder Falls Inn Event Center in Lebanon, 5:30-6:30 p.m.
Each town hall will be hosted by Marty Cahill, president and CEO of Samaritan Health Services, together with Samaritan hospital and system leadership. Attendees will hear detailed presentations about the planned MultiCare affiliation and have the opportunity to ask questions during an open Q&A session.
Because many community members have also expressed interest in learning more about Medicare and Medicare Advantage health plans, licensed health insurance agents who specialize in Medicare will host informational tables at each in-person event to answer questions before and after the presentations.
Registration is required, and seating is limited at each in-person event. To register or learn more, visit samhealth.org/Affiliation. For more information about what this affiliation means for our patients and communities, visit samhealth.org/Affiliation.
Spots are also still open on Thursday, Dec. 11, 12-1 p.m. in a Virtual forum via Microsoft Teams. Link provided upon registration; recording available at samhealth.org/Affiliation after the event.
