Overview

Mission

As a non-profit community service, medstar strives to deliver the highest quality patient care, service, and education through our commitment to compassion, integrity, and teamwork.

What it reported doing in 2025

Provided ambulance services and non-emergency medical transportation services to the communities and institutions we serve.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
