History
Summa Health – headquartered in Akron, Ohio – is one of Ohio’s largest integrated healthcare delivery systems, encompassing two main hospitals, 20 health centers, and a dedicated team of over 8,500 employees and nearly 700 employed physicians and advanced practice providers. With a legacy spanning more than 130 years, Summa Health has built a foundation of excellence in the Greater Akron region.
In 2025, Summa Health entered a groundbreaking new chapter by joining the Health Assurance Transformation Company (HATCo), a platform founded by General Catalyst to redesign the future of healthcare. A first-of-its-kind acquisition, Summa Health and HATCo are working to create a next-generation health system that honors our history while aggressively pursuing innovation. Our goal is to replace fragmented care with a proactive, lifelong healthcare model that empowers patients and improves outcomes.
Together, we are embarking on a long-term vision to move beyond traditional sick care toward a proactive, tech-enabled system of health assurance. We aren’t just preparing for the future of healthcare—we are building it. By joining our team, you will help us leverage innovative technology and sustainable business practices to eliminate barriers to care, creating a modern blueprint for healthcare delivery that serves as a model for the rest of the nation.
