History
Spectrum Health was formally incorporated on Sept. 19, 1997, bringing together the resources of Butterworth Health System and Blodgett Memorial Medical Center.[6] It became the largest and most comprehensive health care organization in West Michigan. Years of planning and a high-profile legal battle had led to this historic day. In August 2000, Richard C. Breon was hired to lead the organization as CEO. Breon worked quickly to form an integrated health care system.[citation needed]
In 2011, Spectrum Health implemented a program that integrates medical services, behavioral health care, addiction and social services for frequent emergency department users. A review of 296 patients involved in the program found a 45% reduction in emergency department visits and hospital admissions after 3 months and a 65% reduction after 6 months.[7]
