Sanford and Fairview Terminate Merger Plans

Sanford Health has announced the discontinuation of its merger process with Fairview Health Services due to lack of support from certain Minnesota stakeholders. The merger, which would have created one of the largest nonprofit health systems in the US, with over $13.5 billion in annual revenue, has been called off after multiple hearings and potential legislative changes. Sanford Health remains committed to providing world-class care and investing in healthcare delivery. This is the second failed attempt by Sanford to merge with Fairview.
