History

Originally founded in 1954 as Peninsula Hospital, it merged with Mills Memorial Hospital in 1985 and became Mills-Peninsula Hospitals.^[4] In 1986, Mills-Peninsula was a founding member of the California Healthcare System (CHS), along with local medical centers California Pacific, Alta Bates Summit, and Marin General.^[5] Ten years later, in 1996, CHS merged with Sutter Health. The same year, the Burlingame hospital became Mills-Peninsula Medical Center and absorbed all inpatient care; the Mills hospital campus in San Mateo, originally founded in 1907, became Mills Health Center and transitioned to an outpatient clinic.^[4] In 2011, the original Peninsula Hospital building was demolished after a new hospital was constructed to meet California's seismic requirements.^[3][6]
