Novant Health, a North Carolina-based health care system, recently closed on the purchase of UCI Medical Affiliates Inc.
Headquartered in Columbia, UCI Medical Affiliates Inc. provides non-medical management administrative services for freestanding medical centers across South Carolina. Novant Health purchased the company from BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina.
With this purchase, Novant Health has acquired 10 Doctors Care and three Progressive Physical Therapy clinics located in the Upstate.
Carl Armato, president and CEO of Novant Health, said expanding access to high-quality outpatient care is a key part of the company’s strategy to transform health care for South Carolinians.
“The addition of our urgent care and physical therapy network enhances our ability to support patients across the state with their unexpected care needs and recovery from injuries,” Armato said.
In total, Novant Health’s purchase of UCI Medical Affiliates Inc. includes 52 Doctors Care and 20 Progressive Physical Therapy clinics across the state. Doctors Care is known to be the largest urgent care provider in South Carolina.
