Relias Healthcare and Neshoba General Announce New Partnership to Enhance Hospital Medicine Services

Neshoba General today announced a new partnership with Relias Healthcare to manage its Hospital Medicine program, effective April 1, 2026.

For decades, Neshoba General has served as a cornerstone of healthcare in Neshoba County, providing a wide range of services close to home for patients and families across the region. This partnership represents a continued commitment to strengthening inpatient care and ensuring patients receive high-quality, coordinated treatment during their hospital stay.

“At Neshoba General, our commitment has always been to provide high-quality care close to home. This partnership with Relias Healthcare strengthens our hospital medicine program and supports our physicians and staff with the resources and infrastructure needed to deliver coordinated, patient-centered care. Together, we are enhancing the care experience for our patients while continuing to invest in the health of our community,” said Lee McCall, CEO of Neshoba General.

Founded to serve the local community and still locally governed, Neshoba General has grown significantly in recent years, expanding services, technology, and provider access while maintaining its mission of delivering safe, quality, patient-centered care.

Relias Healthcare, founded and headquartered in Tupelo, Mississippi, partners with hospitals across the Southeast to deliver locally led, data-driven clinical services. The organization is known for building engaged provider teams supported by strong operational infrastructure, without any private equity or outside investors, allowing a singular focus on patient care and hospital alignment.

As part of this transition, Neshoba General’s Hospital Medicine program will be supported by a team of eight full-time clinicians, all local to the Philadelphia area, including four new clinicians joining as a direct result of this partnership. This investment strengthens provider stability and reinforces a shared commitment to delivering consistent, high quality-care to the community.

Through this partnership, Neshoba General and Relias Healthcare will focus on strengthening inpatient care coordination and hospitalist services while supporting clinical quality, safety, and patient experience. 

"We are honored to partner with Neshoba General, a hospital that plays such a vital role in its community,” said Luke West, CEO of RH. “Our goal is to support their team with a model that combines local leadership with proven systems, helping ensure patients receive high-quality care close to home.”

The transition will be implemented with a strong emphasis on collaboration with current staff, continuity of care for patients, and a smooth onboarding process for clinicians.
