ENT and Allergy Associates, LLP (ENTA) is pleased to announce that the practice has formed a clinical affiliation with Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center (CBMC), formerly Saint Barnabas Medical Center.
“We are thrilled to affiliate and collaborate with ENT and Allergy Associates. ENTA is recognized throughout the region as a leader providing outstanding care to their patients,” states Richard L. Davis, President and CEO, Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center.
This affiliation offers New Jersey residents access to enhanced otolaryngology and allergy health care services across a wide variety of specialties and sub-specialties, provided by CBMC.
ENTA plans to integrate its NextGen Electronic Health Records system with CBMC to create a single button protocol that will help quickly and efficiently coordinate care between physicians and facilities. Patients who are found to need tertiary care will be quickly seen by the specialist within 48 hours. This seamless protocol allows ENTA physicians to quickly direct patients to one of CBMC physicians through an approved HIPAA compliant method of communication. Physicians at CBMC will be able to instantly receive a patient’s diagnosis, relevant images, chart notes, and the clinical description of why they are being sent for more advanced care.
This affiliation will provide a unique opportunity to deliver comprehensive medical and surgical services and provide timely and convenient access to some of the best physicians in the region. ENTA considers itself “a university without walls” and prides itself on the affiliations it has fostered over the years, including clinical alliances with The Mount Sinai Hospital, Montefiore Medical Center and Northwell Health.
Robert Glazer, CEO of ENTA, stated “It’s very exciting to be able to partner with Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center. We are dedicated to the patients of New Jersey and adding an affiliation with a hospital as well-regarded as CBMC is a huge advantage for our physicians and patients.”
“By working closely with leading community providers like ENT and Allergy Associates, we can greatly improve access to the convenient, superior services they offer to the thousands of New Jersey residents impacted by Head, Neck and ENT disorders,” said Jean Anderson Eloy, M.D., Chairman of Otolaryngology at Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center and Vice Chairman, Department of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School.
Robert Green, M.D., President of ENTA, added, “ENTA’s prestigious affiliations are what set us apart in the fields of ear, nose, throat, allergy, and audiology care. Working with the physicians at CBMC provides yet another level of quality care for our New Jersey patients.”
“We are proud to align ourselves with CBMC explained Steven Gold, M.D., Vice President of ENTA. “By forming a clinical affiliation with CBMC, this allows our patients to have seamless access to leading-edge treatments that only a university-based medical enterprise such as CBMC provides.”
