Merger proposal

[edit]

I propose that St. Mary's/Duluth Clinic Health System be merged into Essentia Health. As far as I can tell, St. Mary's/Duluth Clinic Health System no longer exists as an independent entity. All of the External Links on St. Mary's/Duluth Clinic Health System go directly to Essentia's home page. Apparently, Essentia acquired SMDC by January 2010 [1]. Checking the Internet Archive, the last time SMDC had a website was January/February 2012; ever since then the URL flips to Essentia. Since SMDC is a nonexistent entity, and since the SMDC article is a mess and uncited, it seems logical to simply merge it (that is, what little of it may be salvageable and applicable) into Essentia Health.

It's not a hospital, Eastmain. It's a former network of more than 20 hospitals/clinics in three states that no longer exists, and in fact hasn't existed since 2011 at the very latest. Edited to add: Not to mention, there are absolutely no citations in the article, except for the fact that the network merged with another network in 2004.
