Sutter Health is a not-for-profit integrated health delivery system headquartered in Sacramento, California. It operates 25 acute care hospitals and over 200 clinics in Northern California and Central California.

Sutter Hospital Association was founded in 1921 as a response to the 1918 flu pandemic. Named for nearby Sutter's Fort, its first hospital opened in 1923. Later known as Sutter Community Hospitals, the organization eventually merged with several struggling hospitals in the surrounding area.
