About Jefferson Health System (JHS)

In 1995, Thomas Jefferson University and the Main Line Health System signed an agreement establishing a new, nonprofit, corporate entity known as the Jefferson Health System (JHS). The agreement brought together Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and Main Line Health under one corporate parent. Since then, other established networks have joined JHS as founding members, including the Albert Einstein Healthcare Network, Frankford Health Care System, and Magee Rehabilitation Hospital. All patient care is provided by the members of JHS; JHS does not provide any care directly nor does it control the delivery of patient care.

The five members of JHS are:
