History

[edit]

In 1949, Murray Medical Center was founded.[2] On September 29, 2014, Adventist Health System and Murray County Hospital Authority Board signed a lease agreement for Murray Medical Center. Adventist Health System paid the $5.1 million debt the Murray County Hospital Authority Board owed to Hamilton Health Care System.[2][3] On January 2, 2019, Murray Medical Center was rebranded to AdventHealth Murray.[4]

On December 15, 2020, AdventHealth bought AdventHealth Murray from the Murray County Hospital Authority Board.[5][6]

In late March 2024, the Chatsworth City Council approved the annexation of 41 acres west of U.S. Route 76, for a larger hospital to replace AdventHealth Murray.[7][8]
