A new committee designed to inform University of Minnesota administrators about changing practices in health care met for the first time at last week’s Board of Regents meeting.
The Academic Health Committee discussed the University’s relationship with Fairview Health Services, specifically in terms of the recent integration of the University, University Physicians and Fairview.
The integration, which the Regents approved in May, combines the organizations’ operational practices and finances without actually merging them.
