Under the deal, set to take effect Jan. 1, Memorial Health System ownership will not change, but all employees will become Salina Regional Health Center members.
The organizations said the deal was formalized after more than a year of discussions, planning and negotiation.
“This affiliation brings together two historically successful organizations,” said Joel Phelps, president and CEO of Salina Regional Health Center. “We look forward to working with Memorial Health System to provide more growth, stability and future opportunities.”
