New York’s Evergreen Health & Spectrum Health Evaluating Affiliation

New York state non-profit behavioral health provider organizations Evergreen Health and Spectrum Health and Human Services are exploring a strategic affiliated partnership in which Spectrum Health would become an affiliated partner of Evergreen Health. The partnership would create a regionally unique continuum and scope of services that will enable the integration of medical, behavioral, and supportive services. The organizations announced the start of independent due diligence on September 1, 2021; their decisions are anticipated by the end of 2021.

Both organizations would retain their 501(c)3 non-profit status and continue to control their day-to-day operations . . .
