Steward may move HQ from Boston to Dallas

John Gregory | | Health Exec | Management

The largest private for-profit hospital operator in the U.S., Steward Health Care, will be relocating from Boston to Dallas, according to a report in the Dallas Business Journal.

The report cited real estate sources who claimed Steward will move its executive team of roughly 100 people into a newly-completed 25-story office building in the city’s art district. A headquarters move has been rumored for some time as Steward continued expanding with its $2 billion deal to merge with IASIS Healthcare and its December acquisition of three hospitals in Europe.

The Boston Globe had reported in December that Dallas was the frontrunner for Steward’s new corporate headquarters. The company itself didn’t respond to requests for comment.
