In January 2012, Ingham Regional Medical Center was renamed McLaren Greater Lansing.

Orthopedics program
Between 1987 and 1989, the hospital participated in a pilot study of a bundled payment scheme involving an orthopedic surgeon and a health maintenance organization (HMO). The surgeon and IRMC received a predetermined fee for any arthroscopic surgery performed, offering in exchange a two-year warranty covering all postoperative expenses.
Becker's Hospital Review listed the facility on its 2011 list of 60 Hospitals With Great Orthopedic Programs.
