Sanford Health and
Minneapolis-based health system Fairview Health Services this week announced their intent to combine organizations. Sanford would serve as
the combined system’s parent company. But the deal could come under fire from
regulators, according to a Nov. 15 article in the Star Tribune. The two systems first plotted a merger
in 2013, which was struck down by Minnesota’s attorney general. Sanford has
also attempted to merge with Intermountain Healthcare and UnityPoint Health
in recent years. The combined system would operate more than 50 hospitals,
and incorporate Sanford’s health insurance unit, Sanford Health Group. The
payer currently enrolls 202,323 members throughout the upper Midwest. |
