Atlanta-based Northside Hospital and Lawrenceville, Ga.-based Gwinnett Health System have received approval from the FTC to merge.

The newly formed system will operate five hospitals in Georgia and over 250 outpatient locations. It is expected to be operational by the summer.

"We are excited to move forward on the merging of our two health systems," said Bob Quattrocchi, president and CEO of Northside Hospital. "Leaders from both systems are already meeting to develop a comprehensive integration plan that honors our employees and physicians. This plan ensures that our patients continue to receive quality health care with no disruption of service."
