Albuquerque, N.M.-based UNM Hospital plans to acquire multiple clinics owned by Albuquerque-based UNM Medical Group, according to a UNM Hospital statement to Becker’s. The acquisition will take effect Jan. 1, 2027.
UNM Medical Group will no longer employ staff, but its existing 678 employees were offered positions at UNM Hospital or the University of New Mexico. In most cases, employees will retain the same job title, pay and do the same work.
The UNM Health System has historically been comprised of multiple units operating with different licenses. This move is part of an ongoing effort to streamline the system.
