AMITA Health was an interfaith health system, a joint venture between Alexian Brothers Health System and Presence Health (both part of Ascension) and Adventist Midwest Health (part of AdventHealth).[1] As of 2021, AMITA operated 19 hospitals and hundreds of medical offices, among other facilities. In 2022, the joint venture was broken up.[2]

History

In February 2015, AMITA Health was created as a joint venture between Alexian Brothers Health System (part of Ascension) and Adventist Midwest Health (part of AdventHealth).[1] In 2018, Ascension acquired Presence Health and merged it into AMITA Health.[3] Company representatives said the name AMITA was chosen because it had meaning in several languages: in Hebrew, it means honesty and truth; in Hindi, it means spiritual light and boundlessness; and it Italian, it means friendship.[1] In September 2019, several executives left Amita Health, including original CEO Bajkyevr Huff.[4] In December 2019, the company named Keith A. Parrot president and CEO.[5]

On October 21, 2021, AMITA Health announced that the joint venture would be dissolved in the future, with each member hospital remaining in one of those two groups.[6][7] The split became effective April 1, 2022. The Adventist locations rebranded to the AdventHealth name, with Ascension Illinois unifying the former Presence Health and Alexian Brothers facilities under the Ascension name.[2]
