April 7, 2026 — Onvida Health and Siemens Healthineers have entered a 10-year Value Partnership¹ designed to bring the latest medical technology to and improve efficiencies across the Onvida health system. As part of the agreement, Siemens Healthineers will modernize Onvida Health’s diagnostic imaging and therapy equipment, and together with its affiliate, ECG Management Consultants (ECG), will work alongside Onvida Health’s leaders to strengthen daily operations and long term planning.
Supporting a Growing Region
Located in Yuma, Ariz., 10 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border and positioned between Phoenix and San Diego, Onvida Health is a unique 430-bed system serving a rapidly evolving community. Yuma is the second-fastest-growing county in Arizona. I
As Yuma’s population continues to rise, so does the need to continue providing advanced medical services close to home. The partnership supports Onvida Health in upgrading key equipment such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, and radiation therapy systems, helping to reduce wait times and allowing clinical teams to diagnose and treat patients quickly and accurately.
“As a leading rural, regional health system, Onvida Health values the importance of investing in technology today, and the impact it has on healthcare tomorrow,” says Robert J. Trenschel, DO, president and CEO at Onvida Heath. “Partnerships like this build on our ongoing commitment to providing our patients the same level of advanced, innovative technology often reserved for major metropolitan areas.”
Some of the partnership highlights include:
-
Continuous Access to the Latest Technology: Patients will benefit from Siemens Healthineers' advanced imaging and treatment tools, improving early detection and helping care teams provide more personalized care.
-
Enhanced Clinical Capabilities: A coordinated plan for both technology and service will help advance care in areas such as heart health, cancer treatment, and diagnostic imaging, supporting Onvida Health’s long-term vision for growth.
-
A Long-term Commitment: Siemens Healthineers and ECG will partner with Onvida Health on strategic planning to help address challenges including workforce shortages and patient scheduling.
“By focusing on improvements in rural health and quality of care in rapidly growing communities, Onvida Health and Siemens Healthineers are combining local expertise and commitment with the advanced technology and insights we’ve developed by collaborating with providers around the world,” said John Kowal, president and head of the Americas at Siemens Healthineers. Added Chris Collins, CEO of ECG: “This unique partnership brings together advanced medical technology and systemwide advisory expertise to help Onvida Health accelerate performance, scale innovation, and further strengthen their position as a market leader.”
