CentraCare and Stellis Health announced plans for Stellis Health to become part of CentraCare, creating new opportunities to better connect primary, specialty and hospital care for patients across Greater Minnesota. Stellis Health is a physician-owned medical group serving Wright County and surrounding communities.

"Healthcare is changing rapidly, and we need to be thoughtful about how we position our organizations for the future," said Ken Holmen, MD, CentraCare President and CEO.

Stellis clinics will continue operating as usual, and patients can keep seeing their current providers. The proposed agreement aims to strengthen access to care while preserving patient choice. Our goal is to have Stellis become part of CentraCare on Jan. 1, 2027.

"From the get-go, the Gorecki Guest House was a godsend."

That's how Christina Barnes describes being able to stay at the Guest House while her 29-year-old son, Tyler Schreck, was hospitalized at St. Cloud Hospital after he was struck by a car as a pedestrian in Staples, MN.
