In a joint statement, the leaders of Community Health Network, Eskenazi Health and Indiana University Health say they want to go on record in pledging to do more to end health disparities and inequity.

The expanded campus will be located just south of the existing IU Health Methodist Hospital, extending from 16th Street to 12th Street and from Capitol Avenue west to Interstate 65.

IU Health, the state's largest hospital system, said its doctors have conducted about 80,000 telemedicine visits this year, a 10,000 percent increase since the COVID-19 virus hit the state in March.

Indiana University Health will begin relaxing some of the temporary visitor restrictions put in place at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic starting June 15.

Indiana University Health, which has 16 hospitals across the state, is cutting back on opioid prescriptions and giving more advice to patients.

IU will partner with state and health officials to collect and analyze data, train medical professionals and work to create better policy.

The health care system announced the restrictions went into effect Friday at IU Health Ball Memorial Hospital in Muncie and IU Health Blackford Hospital in Hartford City.

Cancer patients will have access to a variety of services like wig fittings, support groups, and music, massage and pet therapy.

Earlier this year, United Healthcare announced it was exiting Indiana's individual marketplace, and last month, Fort Wayne-based Physicians Health Plan of Northern Indiana followed suit.

The Red Cross responds to about five home fires every day in Indiana that often leave people without their medications or necessary medical equipment. The nurse volunteers can work with pharmacies and physicians to replace the losses.
