The system is comprised of 11 acute care hospitals (including five teaching hospitals and an academic medical center), three children’s hospitals, a pediatric rehabilitation hospital and network of outpatient centers, a behavioral health center and network, ambulatory care centers, comprehensive hospice and home care programs, medical groups, three Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), multiple-site radiology services, and pharmacy services.

RWJBarnabas Health and Rutgers University have announced plans to partner and create the state’s largest academic health care system dedicated to providing high-quality patient care, leading-edge research, and world-class health and medical education that will transform and advance health care in New Jersey. The new venture will enhance the delivery and accessibility of evidence-based health care across the state; boost the recruitment of prominent academic, research, and clinical practitioners; and strengthen the advancement of health science.

Innovation and education: This collaboration aligns RWJBarnabas Health, New Jersey’s largest health care system; Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey; and Rutgers Health Group – a faculty practice of approximately 1,000 Rutgers-employed physicians, dentists, psychologists, nurses, pharmacists and other health care professionals. This alliance will result in a multi-specialty group comprised of more than 2,500 practitioners – one of the largest medical groups in the country. The new collaboration will align RWJBarnabas Health with Rutgers’ education, research, and clinical activities, including those at the Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey and Rutgers University Behavioral Health Care. RWJBarnabas Health is a major teaching affiliate of Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. Additionally, through Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, RWJBarnabas Health is the principal teaching partner of Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School and the flagship cancer hospital of Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey.

RWJBarnabas Health is the official health care provider of the New Jersey Devils, Rutgers University Athletics, Seton Hall University Athletics, Princeton University Athletics, and the Somerset Patriots.
