SHERIDAN, WYOMING – May 5, 2025 – Tower Health and Siemens Healthineers have entered a decade-long Value Partnership designed to modernize diagnostic imaging capabilities, enhance operational efficiency, and support long-term clinical excellence across the Tower Health network. The multi-faceted alliance marks a strategic investment in state-of-the-art technology and digital tools aimed at elevating patient care in radiology, oncology, and cardiology services.
Driving Long-Term Value Through Technological Modernization
The 10-year Value Partnership is more than a procurement agreement; it is a strategic roadmap to elevate Tower Health’s infrastructure through lifecycle management and standardization of advanced imaging equipment. The collaboration will bring cutting-edge Siemens Healthineers solutions to Tower Health, including:
- Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance (MR) systems
- Interventional radiology innovations
- Varian radiation-oncology therapies
These upgrades are tailored to enhance system-wide consistency, reduce operational variability, and increase both diagnostic capacity and clinical efficiency.
“This partnership extends beyond merely upgrading equipment; it empowers Tower Health and our staff to uphold our dedication to clinical excellence and innovation, ensuring the delivery of smarter, faster, and more connected care to our patients and the communities we serve for years to come,” said Michael Stern, president and CEO of Tower Health.
Harnessing Digital Intelligence to Improve Clinical Outcomes
Beyond hardware, the Value Partnership encompasses advanced digital health solutions. Tower Health will gain access to Siemens Healthineers’ proprietary digital automation tools that support data-driven clinical decision-making. These tools include:
- Algorithm-driven standardization for clinical workflows
- Cardiovascular imaging tools that enhance consistency
- Reporting simplification features that improve documentation efficiency
- Analytics platforms that convert operational data into actionable insights
By integrating these digital tools, Tower Health positions itself to meet the rising demand for precision diagnostics and value-based care delivery, improving patient experiences and outcomes.
Strategic Collaboration for a Resilient Future
Tower Health’s decision to engage in this long-term partnership reflects a proactive strategy to secure its future amid increasing healthcare complexity and financial pressure. The commitment to modernize imaging capabilities and adopt advanced oncology solutions is expected to fortify Tower Health’s clinical performance and broaden its service excellence.
“We are proud to establish a strategic partnership with Siemens Healthineers, granting us access to state-of-the-art technology during the next decade,” Stern added. “Such strategic partnerships are crucial for securing our enduring success, our dedication to pioneering advancements and our exceptional clinical standards. Together, we are building a stronger Tower Health.”
A Local Commitment with National Implications
The partnership also carries regional significance. Siemens Healthineers, through its subsidiary Varian, has deep roots in the U.S. healthcare ecosystem.
“Our collaboration with Tower Health presents a significant opportunity to support a major health system in our own community,” said John Kowal, president of the Americas at Varian. “By implementing advanced diagnostic imaging systems, technology solutions and Varian oncology therapies, Tower Health is making a significant investment in its hospitals and, ultimately, in enhancing patient care.”
Effective April 14, 2025, Kowal will assume the role of president and head of the Americas at Siemens Healthineers, further strengthening alignment between the two organizations as the Value Partnership enters its implementation phase.
Building the Future of Healthcare Delivery
The Tower Health–Siemens Healthineers Value Partnership exemplifies how strategic alliances can deliver scalable benefits in healthcare delivery. Through enhanced imaging capabilities, digital transformation, and a commitment to continuous improvement, Tower Health is reinforcing its position as a leader in patient-centered innovation.
