About Mercy: Mercy Springfield Communities is comprised of Mercy Hospital Springfield, named in the 100 Top Hospitals; an orthopedic hospital; a rehab hospital; a children's hospital; five regional hospitals in Lebanon, Aurora, Cassville, Mountain View, Missouri and Berryville, Arkansas; and Mercy Clinic, a physician clinic with nearly 700 doctors and locations throughout the region. It is part of Mercy, the seventh largest Catholic health care system in the U.S., which serves millions annually. Mercy includes 45 acute care and specialty (heart, children's, orthopedic and rehab) hospitals, more than 700 physician practices and outpatient facilities, 40,000 co-workers and more than 2,000 Mercy Clinic physicians in Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. Mercy also has outreach ministries in Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. Mercy's Medical Destination Program manages the traveling patient program for all of its facilities. Currently, 50 organizations have achieved Global Healthcare Accreditation through the GHA program to enhance its health tourism or medical travel programs. This number is projected to increase specifically in developed markets as the industry-recognized accreditation signifies a healthcare organization's superior commitment to patient care, ethical practices, and keen business strategies. GHA Standards include 17 core competencies focused on the medical travel cycle for a healthcare organization.
