Overview

Mission

Furthering the service, instruction, and research mission of the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics Authority, and the University of Wisconsin Medical Foundation.

What it reported doing in 2024

Furthering the service, instruction, and research mission of the UW School of Medical and Public Health, UW Hospitals and Clinics Authority, and UW Medical Foundation (collectively, UW Health) by developing and enhancing relationships with regional physicians, hospitals, and other health care providers, bringing programs and clinical centers for the specialty health care services of UW Health to regional communities, and facilitating communication between the regional health care resources and UW Health.

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

MIXED - Revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
