Midwest City Hospital to Become SSM Health St. Anthony Hospital - Midwest

Midwest City’s hospital, owned through the Memorial Hospital Authority, will now be operated by SSM Health Oklahoma (SSM Health) following finalization of an agreement by SSM Health and Community Health Systems, Inc. (CHS)

The new name of the hospital will be SSM Health St. Anthony Hospital – Midwest.

City Manager Tim Lyon signed the preliminary term sheet with SSM Health late last week. The long-term lease will be finalized in early 2021.  SSM Health will operate the hospital, medical group and ambulance service.

“SSM Health’s reputation for excellence in quality health care, innovation and financial stewardship is well known,” said Lyon. “We are extremely pleased about the new partnership and the positive impact SSM Health will have, not only in Midwest City, but all of eastern Oklahoma County.”

SSM Health is a Catholic, not-for-profit health system that provides health care services in Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma and Wisconsin.

SSM Health in Oklahoma includes SSM Health St. Anthony Hospital, Bone and Joint Hospital at St. Anthony, St. Anthony South, and St. Anthony Hospital in Shawnee.  The network includes several other facilities including rural hospitals and SSM Health Medical Group with more than 250 physicians and providers.
