Because of You,
our community will flourish.
Investing In Our Community
Every community has unique healthcare needs and deserves quality care, as well as research-proven strategies for community health that go beyond a hospital’s walls. The American Hospital Association warns that the annual cost of unfair, avoidable health outcomes such as differences in life expectancy, disease prevalence and lack of care access could triple by 2040 to $1 trillion – if unchecked.
Because of You, we are investing in our communities to change this outlook. We are delivering top-tier cancer, pediatric and specialty care, and robust emergency medicine. And by working in and with our communities, we are targeting the root causes of health disparities to promote better health outcomes.
