At HCA Healthcare, we are driven by a single mission: Above all else, we are committed to the care and improvement of human life.
HCA Healthcare is dedicated to giving people a healthier tomorrow. As one of the nation's leading providers of healthcare services, HCA Healthcare is comprised of 186 hospitals and approximately 2,400 sites of care in 20 states and the United Kingdom.
In addition to hospitals, sites of care include surgery centers, freestanding emergency rooms, urgent care clinics, diagnostic and imaging centers, walk-in clinics and physician clinics.
Many things set HCA Healthcare apart from other healthcare organizations; however, at our core, our greatest strength is our people. Every day, more than 309,000 colleagues go to work with a collective focus: our patients. Our focus positively impacts the care experience at the bedside and beyond.
As a learning health system, HCA Healthcare analyzes data from more than 43 million patient encounters each year. This data helps develop technologies and best practices that improve patient care. We also share our learnings with the larger healthcare community and government agencies to improve care everywhere.
We are proud of the impact we have in our communities through employment, investment and charitable giving.
In 2023, we spent $4.7 billion on capital investment in land, buildings and equipment. In addition, HCA Healthcare pays significant taxes that help revitalize communities.
We also provided charity care, uninsured discounts and other uncompensated care at an estimated cost of $3.7 billion in 2023.
At HCA Healthcare, we are excited about the future of medicine. We believe we are uniquely positioned to play a leading role in the transformation of care.
