Boston-based Massachusetts General Hospital and Jiahui Health Network are pursuing a strategic collaboration to create Jiahui International Hospital in China's Shanghai Province.

Under the agreement, Mass General will provide strategic guidance in the creation of the physical infrastructure, operations and governance, as well as expertise in clinical areas, such as nursing, patient care services and cancer care. It will also advise Jiahui as it launches a cancer center focused on breast, lung, gastrointestinal, lymphoma and myeloma treatment programs.
Mass General's Nursing and Patient Care Services will work with Jiahui to create comprehensive programs and establish a foundation for high-quality patient care through training, educational programs and critical quality and safety initiatives.
