AUSTIN (April 10, 2012) – The Texas Hospital Association honored Lake Pointe Health Network Tuesday in Rowlett for 25 years of working together to exceed the needs of patients in Northeast Texas.

Lake Pointe Health Network officials were recognized with the 25-year long-time member award, presented to only 10 hospitals in Texas this year. THA Membership Manager Della Vallejo presented the award to Lake Pointe Health Network Chief Executive Officer Eric Evans and Chief Financial Officer Becky Speight.

“Lake Pointe Health Network has reached a significant milestone among Texas hospitals. It is a substantial achievement that says much about the partnership the THA and Lake Pointe Health Network established to benefit Texas hospitals and patients,” Vallejo said. “The relationship between the organizations appeals to the demands of a growing patient population with ever evolving needs, and our long relationship proves the value of addressing ongoing reform in health care.”
