Things are looking up for Ascension Health. Formed in the 1999 merger of the Daughters of Charity National Health System and the Sisters of St. Joseph Health System, the network consists of almost 80 Roman Catholic hospitals, as well as nursing homes, psychiatric wards, and other health care facilities in 15 states and the District of Columbia. It is the #1 Catholic hospital system in the US (ahead of Catholic Health Initiatives), and the largest not-for-profit health care system. Although some clergy members sit on its governing board, Ascension Health is led by a non-clergy CEO.
