Orlando Health

Résumé
Orlando Health is a private, not-for-profit network of community and specialty hospitals based in Orlando, Florida. Orlando Health is Central Florida’s fourth largest employer with nearly 23,000 employees and more than 4,500 affiliated physicians. The system was founded in 1918 when the first hospital, Orange General Hospital, was opened. In 1946, the hospital name changed to Orange Memorial Hospital. In 1951, Orange Memorial became approved as a teaching hospital, one of the first in Florida. In 1977, Orange Memorial and Holiday hospitals consolidated to form the new Orlando Regional Medical Center, in 1984 the Air Care Team was formed providing scene and interfacility air transport to the Central Florida area, and in 1985 Sand Lake Hospital was built. The Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children & Women opened in 1989 and in 1991 M. D. Anderson Cancer Center Orlando was created. In 1992, ORMC changed its corporate name to Orlando Regional Healthcare System to reflect the growing network of facilities. That same year, ORHS began co-owning South Seminole Hospital with Healthtrust. In 1997, ORHS purchased a 49% share in Leesburg Regional Medical Center. In 1999, ORHS purchased Lucerne Hospital. The following year, ORHS dropped the word "System" from its name, keeping Orlando Regional Healthcare as the corporate name. In 2005, the Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women & Babies was built. In 2008, the system was rebranded to change the corporate name of the organization from Orlando Regional Healthcare to Orlando Health. On October 1, 2020, Bayfront Health St. Petersburg joined Orlando Health Inc. Orlando Health officially closed on the hospital purchase from Community Health Systems (CHS) on Wednesday, September 30. Orlando Health serves 1.6 million Central Florida residents and several thousand international patients annually. Orlando Health is considered a disproportionate share hospital, meaning it receives special funding because it treats significant populations of indigent patients.
