Chapters Health System and Capital Caring Health announced today the signing of a letter of intent to affiliate. By early 2023, the organizations would combine resources to support ongoing innovation and critical care expansion in the communities they each serve. Chapters Health is one of the nation’s premier not-for-profit, community-based healthcare organizations headquartered in Temple Terrace. Founded in 1977, and located in the nation’s capital, Capital Caring Health was, along with several other entities, one of the first in the nation to provide hospice and related care.

With total staffs of nearly 4,000 and 3,000 volunteers, Chapters Health and Capital Caring Health is one of the largest, not-for-profit advanced illness and hospice care organizations in the nation among the nearly 4,700 hospice providers.

“In the past year, Chapters Health has been on an accelerated and ambitious journey to change the way chronic illness management and end-of-life care is administered in our communities,” said Andrew Molosky, MBA, FACHE, CHPCA, president and chief executive officer for Chapters Health. Tom Koutsoumpas, CEO of Capital Caring further stated, “Our affiliation with Chapters Health is a blueprint for other community-based, not-for-profit organizations to follow in order to meet the challenges of the future head on. Together we provide the best possible outcomes for patients, families and our dedicated team members.”

With the combined resources of the Chapters Health System and Capital Caring Health, healthcare services will be provided to residents in 35 Florida counties, four Georgia counties, two Maryland counties, 12 Virginia counties along with four independent cities in the state and all eight wards of Washington D.C., allowing nearly 100,000 lives to be touched annually.

“As we welcome the Capital Caring team in conjunction with our team, we are excited to start 2023 with the experience unmatched anywhere else to continue to elevate home and community-based, end-of-life care,” added Molosky.
