COLUMBUS, Ind. - Columbus Regional Health (CRH) announced a new relationship with Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at Ascension St. Vincent to bring highly specialized pediatric care directly to Bartholomew County, beginning in early 2027.   

Through this collaboration, CRH will host vital pediatric specialty services several days each month, significantly improving healthcare access and convenience for local families.   

The partnership brings advanced expertise in three key pediatric specialties: 

  • Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT)
  • Cardiovascular
  • Orthopedics

Ascension St. Vincent specialists will conduct evaluations, follow-ups, and select medical procedures locally at CRH.   

For pediatric patients who require more complex surgical interventions or intensive hospital-based treatment, the relationship ensures a seamless, highly coordinated transition to Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital in Indianapolis.   

CRH President and CEO Andy Guz said, “By embedding these critical services locally, CRH and Ascension St. Vincent are strengthening the continuum of care for young patients across the region.”   

Services and appointment availability are expected to begin in January 2027, with specific details to follow.
