Growing Our Network, Expanding Your Options

In September 2025, The Alliance announced a major expansion into eastern and northern Wisconsin, northern Minnesota, northern Illinois, and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan by partnering with three major health systems: Aspirus Health, Aurora Health Care, and Froedtert Pleasant Prairie Hospital.

What This Means for Employers

  • More Choice of Providers.

    These additional offerings make our network even more accessible to employers and their employees, giving them more options to find high-value care to meet their unique needs.

    A Wider Geographic Reach.

    Adding these health systems expands our network’s reach, bringing greater value and access across Wisconsin and neighboring states.

    An Even Stronger Cooperative.

    This expansion will allow us to add new employers and better serve our existing employer-members, especially those with employees distributed in multiple locations across the region.
