History

In February 2012, Allina Hospitals and Clinics announced it was changing its name to Allina Health.

Allina Health had 29,382 employees in 2018.

In 2020, Allina Health spent less than half of one percent of expenses on charity care, compared to a national average for nonprofit hospitals of around two percent, while avoiding $266 million in federal, state, and local taxes the same year due to its nonprofit status.

On February 9, 2021, a mass shooting and bombing occurred at an Allina Health clinic in Buffalo, Minnesota, leaving one person dead and four critically injured.

In 2021, Allina Health paid its president $3.5 million in compensation.

In June 2023, The New York Times released an investigative report alleging that Allina refused non-emergency care for some patients with medical debt.

600 Allina Health medical staff at 60 clinics in Minnesota and one clinic in Wisconsin announced they planned to go on a one-day strike in November 2025 over sick leave and safety measures.
