History

edit

In March 2012, Henry Ford Health System closed its hospital in Warren, Michigan.[8]

Henry Ford Health System announced in March 2022 that they would rebrand as Henry Ford Health, dropping the word "system" from their name to put greater emphasis on the word "health."[9]

Ascension merger

edit

On October 18, 2023, Henry Ford Health announced plans to create a joint venture with Ascension, assuming the Metro Detroit and Flint operations of Ascension Michigan.[10][11] Under this arrangement, Ascension controls a 20% ownership and voting stake in the combined organization. The merger was finalized on September 30, 2024.[5]

Under the arrangement, hospitals formerly owned by Ascension will continue to be designated as Catholic institutions, and continue to follow Catholic healthcare guidelines, and as such will not offer abortion, birth control, tubal ligation, or gender-affirming care services. Facilities owned by Henry Ford prior to the merger will remain secular and continue to offer these services.[5]
