Salick Health Care Research Network

Salick Health Care was a pioneering healthcare services company that specialized in the development and management of outpatient cancer and dialysis treatment centers. Founded by Dr. Bernard Salick in 1983, the company was known for its "disease management" model, partnering with prestigious academic medical centers to provide 24-hour specialized care. The Salick Health Care Research Network was a key component of the business, facilitating clinical trials and research collaborations to advance oncology treatments. The company was acquired by Zeneca (now AstraZeneca) in 1997 to integrate clinical service delivery with pharmaceutical research, though its dialysis operations were later divested.
