Dean is one of the largest integrated healthcare delivery systems in the country. Established in 1904 and headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin, Dean provides:

•Medical and health services through a network of Dean or St. Mary's/Dean-owned clinics throughout southern Wisconsin.
•Health insurance services through Dean Health Plan.
•Ancillary health services within Dean Clinic locations.
•Clinical research and education, through Dean Foundation.

A privately held Wisconsin corporation, Dean has been a physician-owned and physician-governed organization since its inception. Ninety-five percent of Dean is owned by physician-shareholders. The remaining five percent is owned by the SSM Health Care, a St. Louis-based order which also owns several hospitals nationwide including St. Mary's Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin and St. Clare Hospital in Baraboo, Wisconsin.

Physician shareholders play a key role in leadership and work with professional management to further our mission — to improve the health of our community.
