The Mercy Health Network, an affiliation partner of Dallas County Hospital, has now officially been rebranded as “MercyOne.”

The name change came about as a result of the ever-growing reach of the system of hospitals and facilities around the state, many of which operate under different brand names, logos, and messages. MercyOne President and CEO Bob Ritz said finding a banner that all of their locations can gather under was an important way to move from seemingly separate individual branches, to one more visible and integrated health system.

Dallas County Hospital contracts with the provider for management support and other health services, though since they’re an affiliate of the organization and not a direct provider, the name of the hospital will remain the same. DCH CEO Angela Mortoza says she supports the rebrand of MercyOne, but emphasizes that the day-to-day operations at the hospital will be unchanged. Ritz adds, the system’s leadership and ownership structure will also remain the same.
