Mercy Medical Center in Canton is now a full member of the Cleveland Clinic health system.
Dr. Timothy Crone has been named president of the hospital, which will now be formally known as Cleveland Clinic Mercy Hospital, according to a news release.
The Clinic and Sisters of Charity Health System announced on Monday, Feb. 1, they had finalized the deal, which began when the two signed a letter of intent in fall 2019.
Though the pandemic slowed the due diligence process, the organizations announced in December that they expected to reach an agreement at the start of February.
