NAPA, or North American Partners in Anesthesia, a leading provider in anesthesia management, has made a strategic move to begin providing its services at Olean General Hospital (OGH) starting in September 2026. This collaboration aims to bolster anesthesia care within the hospital, which serves as a crucial medical facility in Southwestern New York.

Located at 515 Main Street, Olean, NY, Olean General Hospital operates under Funkel Health and offers a variety of healthcare services such as advanced cardiovascular care and cancer treatment. The facility not only caters to acute care but also supports numerous outpatient programs, making it an integral part of the local health landscape.

"Choosing the right partner for anesthesia services is paramount for both our hospital and the community we serve," stated Bradley J. Chapman, President of Olean General Hospital. He explained that NAPA's expertise in leadership, innovation, and revenue management would greatly enhance the patient experience and the overall quality of surgical services provided at the hospital.

NAPA's model is distinctive as it combines on-site anesthesia leadership with the support of a clinician-led national framework. This structure facilitates real-time collaboration and informed decision-making based on extensive data, which is essential for continuous improvement in hospital performance. Additionally, NAPA's specialized revenue cycle management ensures accurate documentation, streamlined reimbursements, and decreased administrative burdens, allowing healthcare professionals to prioritize patient care.

Dr. Jay Lee, Senior Vice President of Clinical Services for NAPA’s Northeast Region, emphasized that the success of their clinical initiatives starts with fostering a supportive culture and team environment. "Our goal at Olean General is to build an atmosphere that not only supports our clinicians but also uplifts the overall patient experience and enhances our surgical offerings," Dr. Lee added.
