That includes: - Advocate Christ Medical Center, in Oak Lawn, IL.     - Advocate Lutheran General Hospital, in Park Ridge, IL.     - Atrium Health Carolinas Medical Center, in Charlotte, NC.     - Atrium Health Carolinas Rehabilitation, in Charlotte, NC.     - Aurora St. Luke's, in Milwaukee, WI.     You can see those and all our recognized hospitals here: https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.plnkd.in/eHF6MFam. I couldn’t be prouder of our doctors, nurses, and hospital staff. This is a validation of our commitment to redefine care and drive better health outcomes for all.
