MeritCare and Sanford Merge into New Health Care System

MeritCare Health System and Sanford Health of Sioux Falls, S.D., have merged into one stronger health system. Together, our size ranks us among the nation's largest integrated health systems, well-positioned to serve as a leading model for health care reform.

The new Sanford Health-MeritCare will provide the best possible patient care experience. We will bring together the best of both organizations and offer services that separately could not be supported. Access to care that is close to home is key for patients.

Together, we will do so much more for you.

We will maintain the same quality and convenience you enjoy today:

  • You can still see your MeritCare doctor.

  • You can still come to a MeritCare facility.

  • You can still use your health insurance.


We will enhance the services, access and regional presence you want:

  • You will benefit from expanded primary and specialty care services.

  • You will enjoy better access to care, especially in rural areas.

  • You will see growth, a commitment to jobs, economic development and support for our communities.


This is the spirit that drives us. The spirit that makes us stronger together.
