University of Missouri Health Care is an academic health system with a mission to save and improve lives. Its roots can be traced back to 1845, when the University of Missouri established its first medical department, laying a foundation for the health system to grow. In 1901, the system’s first hospital, Parker Hospital, opened its doors as one of the first teaching hospitals in the United States. Fifty-one years and another hospital later, MU Health Care officially became an academic medical center and began construction on its flagship hospital, University Hospital.
Today, MU Health Care cares for patients from each of Missouri’s 114 counties.
