About New York’s Southern Tier

As an employee of United Health Services, you’ll call the Southern Tier, or more specifically, the Greater Binghamton area, home. Known for entertainment and restaurants, craft brews, outdoor experiences, minor-league sports, family-friendly events, and a keenness for local history (like our connection to the Twilight Zone and our six antique carousels), Greater Binghamton offers something for everyone. We’re a short drive away from the Finger Lakes region in Central New York, three hours from New York City, and just shy of four hours from Niagara Falls, Canada.

United Health Services is a family of health services organizations that exists to improve the health of the communities we serve by developing and maintaining a comprehensive and cost-effective health care system. We are a not-for-profit organization, operated for the public benefit. Formed in 1981 through the consolidation of three community hospitals, United Health Services today has an annual budget of $677 million and employs more than 5,000 people. As a teaching hospital of Upstate Medical University, UHS trains over 70 physicians per year in residency and fellowship programs.

Each of the six member organizations that are part of United Health Services is owned by the community it serves, and each organization is governed by an all-volunteer Board of Directors composed of local citizens. The system’s member organizations are:

• United Health Services Hospitals

These services are available at the Decker Center for Advanced Medical Treatment, one of the newest United Health Services facilities.

Wilson is a regional referral center for the advanced practice of emergency medicine, neurosurgery and newborn intensive care. It also is the United Health Services site for the practice of open-heart surgery and other advanced cardiac procedures.

Greater Binghamton is situated between the Catskills and the Finger Lakes in the Southern Tier of upstate New York.  Broome County combines small-town charm with the cultural attractions of a major city. The birthplace of IBM and Link flight simulators, it is home to Binghamton University, the premier public university in the Northeast.

Nearby are the Baseball Hall of Fame at Cooperstown and the Corning Glass Center, and the Steamtown National Historic Site in Scranton, PA.

A delightful variety of housing options are available, in settings ranging from suburban to small-town to distinctly rural, all within an easy commute.
