Community Health Systems, Inc. Company Profile
Community Health Systems (CHS) isn't much of a city dweller. The hospital operator prefers small-town America, owning or leasing some 120 hospitals mostly in rural areas or small cities in about 30 states. Its hospitals (which contain a total of some 18,000 beds) typically act as the sole or primary acute-health care provider in their service areas. They offer a variety of medical, surgical, and emergency services and generally have ancillary facilities that include doctors' offices, home health agencies, outpatient surgery centers, and diagnostic imaging facilities. CHS' Quorum Health subsidiary provides management services to non-affiliated hospitals.
