Which health system has the most affiliated hospitals?
AdventHealth is the largest IDN in Florida with 47 member hospitals and 8,371 staffed beds across its network. Founded more than 100 years ago, it has spent the last century acquiring its 47 hospitals, as well as 49 imaging centers, 17 skilled nursing facilities, and 8 physician groups among others. Together, all of these contribute to their consistently higher net patient revenue (NPR) and number of staffed beds than any other network on our list.
Both HCA Florida Healthcare – West Division and BayCare Health System are tied with 18 hospitals in their networks respectively. Interestingly, HCA Florida West has more staffed beds and discharges. However, BayCare has a higher NPR at more than $3.9 billion.
HCA is also one of the largest IDNs in the country. Its work with other hospitals outside its network, as well as a rapid expansion throughout the 1960’s and 1970’s, led to the creation of multiple divisions across different healthcare sectors which still exist today.
Many of the hospitals on our list are also featured in a U.S News and World Report ranking of hospitals offering the best quality of care. The ranking of these facilities was determined by patient outcomes and procedure volume. AdventHealth’s Orlando facility ranks #2 in overall quality of care on this list. Baptist Health and the University of Florida Health are also ranked in the top 10 by them.
What is an IDN?
An IDN is an acronym for "integrated delivery network" Also called an integrated health network (IHN) or multihospital system (MHS), an IDN is a group of healthcare providers that operate within a specific geographic region and usually offers a wide range of healthcare services. The purpose of an IDN is to offer a full spectrum of care with as many different specialties as possible.
