Michigan health system to acquire Akron-based Summa Health
A Michigan health system is acquiring Summa Health, Akron’s largest hospital system and one of Summit County’s biggest employers.

Beaumont Health is Michigan’s largest health-care system, based on inpatient admissions and net patient revenue. It has annual revenues of $4.7 billion, eight hospitals and 38,000 employees.
