Greetings, physicians and other healthcare leaders. Welcome to The Insights Edition of MD News Mid-Penn. I am delighted to share perspectives from the region's leading healthcare providers about forward-looking ways they are broadening local access to expert care. Penn State Health continues progressing toward that goal through its partnership with Highmark Health, acquisition of several physician practices, opening of a multiservice health facility and groundbreaking on a $200 million community-based medical center. Those efforts and the fruit they are already bearing are the focus of one of our features. We also examine significant advances in cardiovas- cular care that UPMC Pinnacle has helped bring about through leading-edge clinical trials at PinnacleHealth CardioVascular Institute. UPMC is providing early access to high-level therapies in our region. Another feature explores WellSpan Philhaven's multi- pronged approach to ensuring patients have robust access to behavioral health services. A deep understanding of the complex link between mental and physical health informs WellSpan Philhaven's efforts, which incorpo- rate advanced technologies, physician partnerships and expanded facilities. Evidence that women age 75 or older benefit from mam- mography continues to grow, raising questions about current screening recommendations. We review the latest findings in our clinical section about women's health and provide other news on this subject as well. Our nationa l feature explores cost-effective ways healthcare facilities can enhance security in parking lots and garages, and we also offer insights about new and upcoming medical devices.
