Advocate Aurora Health and Atrium Health will form a $27 billion health system spanning seven states, making it the sixth largest health system in the country, the not-for-profit providers announced today.
This is Atrium Health’s largest commercial deal to date — a strategic combination with Illinois and Wisconsin’s Advocate Aurora Health hospital system.
