UW Health and UnityPoint Health-Meriter are pursuing a joint operating agreement and a merger of their health insurance plans, which could shift some patients from UW Hospital to Meriter, alleviate the need for new construction and help the longtime rivals adapt to payment changes in health care, officials said Thursday.

The new agreement will expand the collaboration to all clinical care. It will alleviate the need for new construction and shift some patients from UW Hospital, which is often full, to Meriter, which has extra capacity, leaders of the organizations said last year. [emphasis added]

Meriter plans to build its latest clinic on 13 acres, west of Laura Lane, just off the rapidly redeveloping Parmenter Street corridor. The health care provider has a 20-year plan for the site that could eventually deliver as much as 250,000 square feet of outpatient health care facilities, said Kevin Snitchler, assistant vice president of facilities development for Meriter-UnityPoint Health.
This summer, Meriter plans to remove or demolish five buildings, tear up the asphalt and concrete, and replace it with new topsoil and grass to improve the aesthetics of the site until work on the clinic is expected to begin sometime in 2017.
