Mercy Memorial Entrance

Mercy Memorial Hospital System (MMHS), a 238-bed nonprofit hospital company located in Monroe, MI, has signed a letter of intent to join ProMedica, a 12-hospital interstate system based in Toledo, OH. The Board of Trustees of MMHS made the unanimous decision to join ProMedica after a rigorous assessment of strategic alternatives. MMHS will become ProMedica’s third hospital in Michigan.

 

Juniper’s Role
The Board of MMHS engaged Juniper Advisory to conduct a process to evaluate whether remaining independent best enabled MMHS to thrive. Upon determination by the Board to consider change, Juniper implemented a competitive process to elicit a range of structural options. Juniper designed and managed a comprehensive market-clearing process, drafted information materials, assembled an electronic data room, conducted reverse due diligence and negotiated the agreement between the parties.
