The University of Alabama System Board of Trustees has approved an agreement that will allow for UAB Health System Authority to acquire Ascension St. Vincent’s Health System in central Alabama. Under the agreement, UAB Health System Authority will take ownership of all Ascension St. Vincent’s care sites which include hospitals in Birmingham, Blount, Chilton, East, and St. Clair, the One Nineteen Campus, the Trussville Freestanding Emergency Department, imaging centers, and other clinics part of Ascension Medical Group. The transaction will include all current services, facilities, caregivers, associates, and providers serving the region.
Patients will still be able to access healthcare services and providers they trust while gaining access to a larger care network as a result of this acquisition agreement. This merger is seen by UAB and Ascension St. Vincent’s leadership as a way to continue growing access to care in Alabama and benefit patients by providing a larger and more robust network of providers in the region. Dawn Bulgarella, CEO of UAB Health System expressed that this is a natural next step to expand access to sustainable care in Alabama.
