Here We Grow!
On July 1, 2024, Liberty Hospital joined The University of Kansas Health System. Since then, our organizations have been getting to know each other and laying the groundwork for formal integration to begin. Becoming fully integrated will take some time, and we look forward to kicking off discovery this fall.
The goal is full integration, with access to the expertise and resources available across academic and community medicine. As part of the health system, Liberty Hospital will expand access to high-quality healthcare for current and future Northland and Northwest Missouri patients. The partnership will create a more seamless experience for patients to receive primary, specialty and subspecialty care close to home.
