Anne Arundel Medical Center and Doctors Community Health System have merged to become Luminis Health.
ANNAPOLIS, MD — Anne Arundel Medical Center (AAMC) and Doctors Community Health System (DCHS) have combined to form a new, integrated health system called Luminis Health.
“For years, Anne Arundel Medical Center and Doctors Community Health System have shared a dedication to compassionate care, delivered when and where people need it most,” said Victoria Bayless, president/CEO of AAMC and CEO of Luminis Health. “We’re carrying that same commitment into the future as Luminis Health, a health system that is here to embrace progress and awaken a new era in care for our communities.”
After sharing their intent to partner in May, AAMC and DCHS signed a definitive agreement at the end of June and closed July 1, 2019. Luminis Health will launch its new brand in spring 2020, which will include a new logo and visual identity. The full integration is expected to take up to two years.
