Phoenix-based Banner Health is Arizona’s largest private employer – and about to get bigger.
With operations in seven states, Banner has 337 active projects on its books totaling $1.5 billion, with $1.2 billion of those projects in Arizona.
That’s not counting the $500 million patient tower it’s building in Tucson as part of its new relationship with University of Arizona. Earlier this year, Banner completed its $1.2 billion purchase of UA Health Network, making it the largest private employer in Arizona.
