Rural Health Services Consortium, Inc. is a private, non-profit corporation, which was founded in June 1985. The mission of the Consortium is to provide affordable, quality healthcare to all who seek medical treatment in the Northeast Tennessee area.

The Consortium has grown to over 170 full-time employees, 27 part-time employees serving twelve centers in eight counties. Our medical staff includes two Chief Medical Officers, fifteen Medical Doctors, two Pediatricians, fourteen Nurse Practitioners, three Physicians Assistants and two clinical social workers.

The Consortium has grown to its current level of seeing in excess of 100,000 patient visits per year. The centers are located in small, rural communities which provide services and counseling to a wide spectrum of patients. Since the charter of our consortium in 1985, we have been improving our services for our patients. Within the past year our expansion of centers has increased, to include two new clinics and a behavioral health center.
