SMCS adds Mountain Valley Medical to its community network

Springfield Medical Care Systems is in the process of adding Mountain Valley Medical Clinic in Londonderry as a community health center site within the SMCS federally qualified health center network.

Mountain Valley Medical Center will serve the Vermont towns of Jamaica, Landgrove, Londonderry, Peru, South Londonderry, Stratton, Wardsboro, West Townshend, West Wardsboro, Weston and Windham.

“MVMC has a long history of providing high quality health-care services,” said Tim Ford, president and chief executive of SMCS. “MVMC’s geographic service area is contiguous to the current SMCS service area. As part of the SMCS network, patients will now have access to expanded services through the SMCS system, including discounted pharmaceuticals, integrated behavioral health services and dental care.” 

Chuck Sweetman, president of the Board of Directors for MVMC, said, “This new relationship is a ‘win/win’ opportunity for our community:  broader access to services and improved financial security for our clinic.”
