UofL Health is a fully integrated regional academic health system based[1] in Louisville, Kentucky formed by the reorganization of KentuckyOne Health in conjunction with the acquisition of that system by the University of Louisville from Catholic Health Initiatives in 2019. The resulting health care system combined University of Louisville Hospital and the various hospitals and medical centers of KentuckyOne under one management umbrella.[2][3][4][5]

UofL Health's affiliation with the University of Louisville School of Medicine joins academic physicians who lead medical advancements through research in laboratories, at the bedside, and in the community. They are responsible for educating not only medical students and physicians in training but also practicing physicians through lectures, journal publications, and conferences that disseminate cutting-edge medical knowledge broadly.[6]
