The Albany Business Review published an article on the Provider Transition Agreement signed between Ellis Medicine and St. Peter’s Health Partners (SPHP).
Under the agreement, 170 providers in seven locations and certain management employees at Ellis will become employees of SPHP Medical Associates.
