The Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) Health Network, a group of more than 100 general pediatricians in 26 practices throughout Los Angeles affiliated with CHLA to improve care for children across Southern California, recently launched.

The CHLA Health Network is the only physician-led network of its kind in Los Angeles just for kids. It brings together community-based pediatricians committed to developing a continuum of care that spans from the pediatrician’s office to CHLA’s partner hospitals, where its physicians oversee pediatric and neonatal care as well as to its main hospital in the heart of Los Angeles.

The network is jointly led by a managing board that includes representatives consisting of pediatricians from the five founding community pediatric practices, the CHLA Medical Group and CHLA.

The network is in the process of reviewing applications from practices that are interested in affiliating with the network.

CHLA is located at 4650 Sunset Blvd. For information, visit chla.org.
