Oklahoma State University Medical Center
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oklahoma State University Medical Center is a health institution located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. OSU Medical Center was known as Tulsa Regional Medical Center prior to the hospital's rebranding on November 2, 2006. The name change was part of a fifty-year academic affiliation agreement between Tulsa Regional Medical Center and the Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine signed in the spring of 2006 in order to create a permanent teaching hospital for Oklahoma State medical students.
Oklahoma legislators have appropriated $40 million in funding towards improving the hospital's technology and facilities. Among the expected improvements are an expansion of the intensive care unit and renovations to the women's health and neonatal intensive care unit programs. Oklahoma State University officials say that OSU Medical Center is the largest osteopathic teaching center in the United States, training 126 resident physicians in primary and sub-specialty care each year.

OSU Medical Center has a partnership with OSU Center for Health Sciences and Diagnostic Imaging Associates to provide medical care to rural communities in Oklahoma with a telemedicine program. This program currently includes 35 regional hospital and clinic partners, and is one of the largest state-wide telemedicine programs in the United States.
OSU Medical Center also provides cutting edge cardiology care, adolescent, geriatric and psychiatric care, and comprehensive wound care. OSU Medical Center recently expanded its cardiology services and uses Cardiology of Tulsa to oversee its cardiology fellowship program.
