History
Formerly a division of Thomas Jefferson University, the hospital was separated from the university to become a founding member of the Jefferson Health system in 1995. The Hospital merged with Methodist Hospital as a division of Thomas Jefferson University Hospitals in 1996.[3] In March 2014, the Jefferson Health System was dissolved.[4] In July 2016, Aria Health and Jefferson Health System announced an official merger.[5]
For fiscal year ending June 30, 2017, Thomas Jefferson University Hospitals had 937 licensed beds, 41,368 admissions, 1,350,317 outpatient visits, 117,746 emergency room visits, 9,500 full- and part-time employees, 873 house staff, 1,667* medical staff, and 3,265 full- and part-time registered nurses. (*Includes other professional personnel including psychologists, podiatrists, NPs, PAs, CRNAs, etc.)[6]
In July 2017, Thomas Jefferson University and Philadelphia University combined to create the newly named Thomas Jefferson University.[citation needed]
Merger with Einstein Healthcare Network
In 2018, Jefferson Health reached a conclusive agreement to merge with the Einstein Healthcare Network. The merger created an 18-hospital system and $5.9 billion in revenue including over "50 outpatient and urgent-care centers, leading rehabilitation and post-acute facilities" and maintained almost 39,000 employees.[7][8] In 2020, the Federal Trade Commission attempted to block the merger.[9]
