In June 2010, Thomson Reuters identified Fairview Health Services as one of the top ten health care systems in the United States.[2] The University of Minnesota Medical Center in Minneapolis was also recently recognized by U.S. News & World Report as a top hospital in the United States for treatment in six different specialties.[3] In January 2011, HealthGrades listed Fairview Ridges in Burnsville and Fairview Southdale in Edina as "Distinguished Hospitals for Clinical Excellence," with each ranking in the top 5% of hospitals in the area.[4] In October 2016, James Hereford, former COO of Stanford Health Care, became CEO of Fairview.[5]
In May 2017, Fairview announced they were merging with HealthEast Care System which serves primarily St. Paul and the eastern suburbs of the Twin Cities. The combined Fairview/HealthEast has approximately 33,200 employees.[6]
M Health Fairview is a partnership between Fairview, the University of Minnesota, and University of Minnesota Physicians that started January 1 of 2019. HealthEast Care System's hospitals will be part of the new M Health Fairview brand of care.[7]
As of Friday November 8, 2019 Fairview Health Services has about 34,000 employees. They have 10 hospitals and about 60 clinics with multiple services offered.[8][9]
