Intermountain Health, SCL Health to merge into $14 billion, 33-hospital system

On an unrelated note, Intermountain also shut down 25 of its retail pharmacies earlier this summer and transferred prescriptions and inventory to CVS pharmacy. It now operates only its home delivery pharmacy, special pharmacy, and its Primary Children’s Hospital retail pharmacy location.

Headquarters for the newly combined system will be in Salt Lake City, Utah, where Intermountain is situated. A regional office will be in Broomfield, Colorado, the home of SCL Health. Harrison will serve as president and CEO, while Lydia Jumonville, president and CEO of SCL Health, will retain her current position during a two-year integration, and be a board member of a newly combined board. The board of trustees and team leaders will be selected from both systems.

"We are two individually strong health systems that are seeking to increase care quality, accessibility, and affordability,” said Jumonville. “We will advance our missions and better serve the entire region together.”

While the organization will be named Intermountain Healthcare, SCL Health’s seven Catholic hospitals will retain their Catholic names and be run according to existing practices. The same does not apply to its one secular hospital in Colorado.
