History

The hospital opened in 1913 as Ingham County Tuberculosis Sanatorium, a ten-bed county facility.

In January 2012, Ingham Regional Medical Center was renamed McLaren Greater Lansing.[1]

On March 6, 2022, McLaren Greater Lansing closed its two legacy hospitals at 401 w. Greenlawn ave. and 2727 S. Pennsylvania Ave. and moved to their new replacement hospital at 2900 Collins Road.

Orthopedics program

Between 1987 and 1989, the hospital participated in a pilot study of a bundled payment scheme involving an orthopedic surgeon and a health maintenance organization (HMO).[2] The surgeon and IRMC received a predetermined fee for any arthroscopic surgery performed, offering in exchange a two-year warranty covering all postoperative expenses.[2] [3]

Becker's Hospital Review listed the facility on its 2011 list of 60 Hospitals With Great Orthopedic Programs.[4]
