When Mercy General and Hackley Health merged in 2009, the community reflected deep seated,
generational biases about the two competing hospital systems. Roger Spoelman, C.E.O. at Mercy
Health Partners says, “So we really did have to create a new culture in the organization. And I have
to say that MBS was part of the foundation of that new culture."Within eight months of the merger,
Mercy Health Partners was named one of the nation's Top100 Hospitals and Top 100 Hospitals for
cardiovascular care by the Healthcare business of Thomson Reuters.
