Until the recent HealthONE sale, the purpose and intent of the original joint venture was to strengthen and grow the HealthONE hospitals, while maintaining an ongoing commitment to community benefit and charity care. In 1999, HealthONE assumed the trade name of HealthONE Alliance and in 2006, the HealthONE Alliance changed its name to the Colorado Health Foundation to reflect its work across the state〔http://www.denverpost.com/business/ci_4110069〕 and redefine its mission to make Colorado the healthiest state in the nation. In 2002, the Rose Family Medicine Residency joins the HealthONE Alliance. In 2006, HealthONE Alliance changes its name to the Colorado Health Foundation to reflect its work across the state and adopts the goal of making Colorado the healthiest state in the nation. In addition to operating five graduate medical education (GME) residency programs and three community programs, the Colorado Health Foundation awards $20.4 million in grants In 2007, the Colorado Health Foundation awards $29.6 million in grants, while continuing to operate five GME residency programs and three community programs. In 2008, embracing its growing grantmaking role, the Colorado Health Foundation invests more than $45 million in nonprofit organizations and graduate medical education. The Foundation also transfers operation of the Johnson Adult Day Program to Total Community Options – one of several programs the Foundation spun off or discontinued as its grantmaking activities grew In 2009, the Colorado Health Foundation more than doubles its community investment from 2008 to $94 million. On Oct. 13, 2011, Colorado Attorney General John Suthers approved the sale of the foundation's 40 percent equity stake in Denver-area's (HCA-HealthONE LLC ) health care system for $1.45 billion.〔http://www.coloradoattorneygeneral.gov/press/news/2011/10/13/attorney_general_approves_colorado_health_foundation%E2%80%99s_sale_hospital_assets_hc〕 The foundation will continue to partner with HealthONE in managing five Denver-area physician-training residency programs.
