Saint Louis University Hospital will officially become part of AIM Circle of Elite Organizations SSM Health today.

SSM will own and operate the hospital, with SLU Hospital employees becoming SSM employees.
SSM and SLU are planning to hold an event to celebrate the change in ownership Tuesday at 10:30 a.m. in the main lobby of the hospital. Those expected to be in attendance include SSM Health CEO Bill Thompson, SLU President Fred Pestello, SLUCare Physician Group Chief Medical Officer Robert Heaney, SLU Hospital President Kate Becker and Candace Jennings, regional president of hospital operations for SSM Health St. Louis.
