In June 2010, Thomson Reuters identified Fairview Health Services as one of the top ten health care systems in the United States.[3] The University of Minnesota Medical Center in Minneapolis was also recently recognized by U.S. News & World Report as a top hospital in the United States for treatment in six different specialties.[4] In January 2011, HealthGrades listed Fairview Ridges in Burnsville and Fairview Southdale in Edina as "Distinguished Hospitals for Clinical Excellence," with each ranking in the top 5% of hospitals in the area.[5] In October 2016, James Hereford, former COO of Stanford Health Care, became CEO of Fairview.[6]

In May 2017, Fairview announced they were merging with HealthEast Care System which serves primarily St. Paul and the eastern suburbs of the Twin Cities. The combined Fairview/HealthEast has approximately 33,200 employees.[7]
