Medica has had an ACO with Fairview — Fairview Health Advantage — since 2012, but the addition of North Memorial Health Care brings 26 more primary care clinics and two hospitals into the fold as well. Overall, the new ACO will include more than 2,500 primary and specialty care physicians.

Current Fairview Health Advantage members will have access to the North Memorial providers Nov. 1.
