Your Health Announces The Closure of its Hartsville Location

Your Health announces the closure of its Hartsville location, effective December 16, 2024. The decision follows changes in the professional paths of Dr. Harless and Dr. Elder, who are transitioning to hospital-based care, and Dr. Mendez, who is pursuing a new professional venture.
This closure highlights ongoing challenges faced by independent healthcare providers. Over the past decade, Medicare reimbursements for primary care services have declined by 30%, with an additional 2.8% reduction announced for 2025. Meanwhile, hospital reimbursement rates have risen by 30%, prompting many physicians to shift to hospital-based roles.
Despite our extensive efforts for the owners to renew the lease for the Hartsville office an agreement could not be reached, leading to the closure. However, Your Health remains committed to serving Hartsville patients. The staff will continue supporting patients through telehealth visits, in-home care, and appointments at nearby locations in Florence and Bennettsville. To ensure continuity of care, Your Health is introducing new providers to support Hartsville patients during this transition. More details about their expertise is in the below links.
While the closure of our Hartsville location is disappointing, our priority is the health and well-being of our patients. We are committed to exploring options for a new Hartsville location while
continuing to provide accessible, patient-centered care.
Patients with scheduled appointments will be contacted to discuss their options. For assistance or to schedule telehealth or in-person visits, please call (843) 917-4117. Your Health thanks the Hartsville community for its support and looks forward to continuing to serve you.

Introducing The Hub App: Your One-Stop Resource for Organization and Efficiency
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of The Hub, a powerful new tool designed to bring clarity, efficiency, and alignment to all our company processes and protocols. The Hub is more than just an app—it’s our new single source of truth, a dedicated space for employees to find up-to-date company documents, workflows, procedures, and administrative files. By housing all resources in one place, The Hub ensures that every team member is equipped with consistent, accurate information to perform at their best.
KEY FEATURES OF THE HUB
Streamlined Document Management
The Hub enables all document creation, review, and approval processes to take place within one platform. This makes it easy to track each document’s status, reducing the need for manual updates and promoting a streamlined process from start to finish.
Locked-Down Approval and Disapproval Process
With The Hub’s secure approval system, every document is vetted by our designated team to ensure it aligns with current company standards. Employees can submit new documents or suggest revisions, with full transparency on status changes (e.g., “In Review,” “Approved,” or “Denied”). Feedback is provided for any disapproved documents, so revisions can be made swiftly and efficiently.
Customized Access and Permissions
The Hub’s permission structure ensures that each employee sees only the documents relevant to their role. Files are labeled as “Downloadable” or “View Only” based on access needs, with restricted permissions where needed (e.g., HR, Management). This ensures each team member has secure and appropriate access to essential information.
Protocol Compliance and Accountability
Following best practices and our established document management guidelines is crucial for consistency across our organization. Unauthorized document creation or distribution outside of The Hub is strictly prohibited, helping us maintain high standards and avoid referencing outdated materials. Our commitment to accountability is reinforced through The Hub, where supervisors can ensure that team members adhere to established protocols.
Training and Support Resources
The Hub includes a detailed user guide to support all employees in accessing and navigating the app. Whether you’re accessing training guides, workflows, or regulatory documents, the app’s clear layout will guide you to the resources you need with ease.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of the 8th Annual Your Health Provider Conference! This year’s event was remarkable, thanks to the enthusiasm of our attendees, the expertise of our speakers, and the support of our sponsors and vendors. Together, we created a weekend filled with inspiration, knowledge-sharing, and memorable experiences. From karaoke nights to engaging team-building activities, we strengthened connections across departments and fostered a collaborative spirit that will benefit our entire organization.
We were thrilled to welcome internationally recognized speaker Dr. Calvin Chou, who led a powerful workshop on relationship-centered communication, effective feedback, conflict resolution, and remediation in healthcare. Dr. Chou emphasized the importance of listening to understand, referencing Stephen Covey's insight: “Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply.” His practical guidance on the Ladder of Inference and strategies for empathetic communication inspired attendees to prioritize active listening in patient and colleague interactions.
The conference also featured focused tracks to address the diverse needs of our healthcare community:
Medical Track: This track provided clinicians with insights into the latest medical advancements and patient care strategies, focusing on enhancing treatment for chronic conditions and integrating technology in healthcare.
Social Work Track: Dedicated to social workers, this track offered sessions on trauma-informed care, professional boundaries, and critical social issues like hoarding, addiction, and mandated reporting.
Leadership Track: This track empowered healthcare leaders with sessions on team-building, regulatory navigation, and patient-centered leadership. Emphasizing patient satisfaction and value-based care, these sessions equipped leaders with strategies for impactful decision-making.
In addition to educational sessions, a unique workshop with a professional magician brought a fresh perspective on problem-solving and innovation, reminding clinicians of the “magic” they bring to patient care.
Be sure to check out our blog and social media pages for photos and highlights from the weekend. Please share the memories and help us extend our gratitude to everyone who made this event a truly unforgettable experience. For more conference details, visit the Your Health Conference website.
