Overview

Mission

Extending the Healing Ministry of Christ

What it reported doing in 2024

Operation of a 504-bed acute care hospital. There were 18,819 patient admissions, 81,288 patient days, 275,912 outpatient visits, and 535,299 physician practice patient visits in the current year.

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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most filed governance safeguards are in place. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
