Richmond-based VCU Health System announced Monday it has finalized its purchase of the 67-bed Riverside Tappahannock Hospital (RTH) and related medical services from Riverside Health System.
Financial terms of the transaction were not released. The hospital will now operate as VCU Health Tappahannock Hospital.
VCU Health System acquired the hospital and its related services, including diagnostics, physical therapy, Tappahannock Urgent Care and Riverside Medical Group providers’ locations in the Northern Neck. Patients in the region also will have access to VCU Health’s services, including clinical trials and medical specialists. The two systems began a partnership in 2019 with a collaboration between the Tappahannock hospital and VCU Massey Cancer Center, which began offering cancer care to RTH patients, including access to clinical trials and other services at Massey and the VCU Medical Center.
