SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) -- Sanford Health has announced it will work with a state-owned health care system in China to develop a children's clinic in a rapidly growing part of the country.
Sanford Health officials traveled to China last week to firm up plans for the clinic.
Sanford announced Sunday that it will collaborate with YMCI Calmette Medical Investment and Management Co.
YMCI Calmette will own the clinic, and Sanford World Clinic will manage day-to-day operations and provide medical services.
The two-story, 18,000-square foot Sanford World Clinic in Kunming will have the capacity to hold up to 10 primary care physicians. YMCI Calmette may also use the clinic for rotating pediatric sub-specialists.
Sanford, based in Sioux Falls and Fargo, bills itself as the nation's largest not-for-profit rural health care provider.
