Frequently Asked Questions

If you’re interested in learning more about Cleveland Clinic Connected and how we can work together, please email ccconnected@ccf.org.

Patients will have peace of mind knowing that their care is at the intersection of their trusted local provider and the medical expertise from one of the most trusted healthcare systems in the world.

No. All care at member facilities will be provided by the local care teams. Members can access Cleveland Clinic specialists through the eClinical Review process to discuss complex cases and treatment options.

No. Members maintain complete ownership and management of their local facilities. Cleveland Clinic Connected is simply an opportunity to collaborate and consult with Cleveland Clinic experts, share knowledge and participate in educational opportunities — improving patient experience and outcomes worldwide.

Cleveland Clinic locations in the U.S. and abroad have accepted patient referrals from members. However, referrals cannot be guaranteed, as patient safety (defined as risk of mortality and/or morbidity) and patient preference will drive where care happens.

Cleveland Clinic is interested in collaborating with like-minded domestic and international healthcare organizations looking to grow and optimize their practice, enhance delivery of care and elevate patient experience.

My organization would like to explore advisory services that identify and target improvement or growth areas with tailored and practical guidance, but we are not necessarily interested in a branded affiliation. Is there a service for that?

In select cases, flexible, short-term support may be available to drive clinical and administrative quality improvements, operational efficiencies, enhanced patient experience and clinician engagement, and education. The expectation would be that these short-term advisory engagements would be the starting point for a deeper and longer-term engagement. Please contact us to see if this is an option.
