In 2012, three whistleblowers at Park Ridge Health sued Adventist Health System for fraud. When the lawsuit was filed the United States Department of Justice, Government of North Carolina, Government of Florida, Government of Tennessee and Government of Texas intervened. Adventist Health System agreed to settle the lawsuits for a total of $118.7 million on September 21, 2015.[4][5][6]

On April 6, 2013, Park Ridge Health announced that it would build a medical center in south Asheville, North Carolina at Biltmore Park for $10 million.
