APPLETON — The Board of
Directors of the Marshfield Clinic announced Thursday

strategic health care partnership, after a vote on Dec.

Other members in abouthealth are Aspirus, Aurora Health
Care, Bellin Health, Gundersen Health System, ProHealth
Care, ThedaCare and UW Health. The partnership strives
to make high-quality, efficient care accessible to
approximately 90 percent of Wisconsinites and their
neighbors in parts of Illinois, Iowa, Michigan and
Minnesota. According to the announcement, the members
have the same electronic health record platforms, and
offer patients access to 47 hospitals and more than
7,000 providers.
In the coming weeks, the abouthealth Board of Managers
will study Marshfield Clinic Health System, according to
the announcement.
“While no decisions have been made, we are excited to
examine this potential opportunity to include Marshfield
Clinic Health System in abouthealth,” according to the
announcement from abouthealth members.
