Southern Health Partners (SHP) is a leading provider of comprehensive medical, dental, and mental health services specifically designed for correctional facilities. Headquartered in Chattanooga, Tennessee, the company specializes in serving small to medium-sized county jails, a niche that distinguishes it from larger national competitors. SHP's service model focuses on delivering cost-effective, high-quality inmate healthcare while mitigating legal and financial liability for local government agencies. Their offerings include on-site nursing, physician services, pharmacy management, and the implementation of electronic health records tailored for the correctional environment. In 2023, the company was acquired by Northlane Capital Partners to further scale its operations and service capabilities.
