Overview
Mission
The mission of Rush Community Service Initiative Program (RCSIP) is to provide community-based volunteer experiences for Rush students that enhance their ability to work in teams, develop patient relationships, care for diverse populations, and to provide targeted services based on community need.
What it reported doing in 2024
Patient Care - Rush Oak Park Hospital (ROPH) is a community hospital committed to balancing clinical excellence, a professional and healing environment and community outreach programs to address various healthcare issues. Patient care in fiscal year 2025 was provided in more than 4,804 inpatient admissions and 116,429 outpatient visits.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Other-operating. 98% of the money available for current operations came from other operating 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. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
