Radiologists at three private practices in Connecticut, Indiana, and Michigan have merged to form a new corporation, Advanced Imaging Alliance (AIA), after working with each other for several years on quality improvement initiatives.
The three groups are X-Ray Consultants in northwest Indiana, Naugatuck Valley Radiological Associates in south central Connecticut, and Huron Valley Radiology in southeast Michigan. AIA will represent 76 radiologists.
The new organization is wholly owned by the physician shareholder members of the three groups that merged. The groups began working together as members of the Patient Safety Organization operated by Strategic Radiology, a national coalition of privately owned, independent radiology groups.
AIA will provide radiology services to dozens of healthcare providers throughout the three states, including nine hospitals operated by Trinity Health in Livonia, MI.
