Providence

Welcome to Providence's 2023 Annual Report

Providence’s more than 165-year legacy of serving and investing in communities is rooted in a tradition of caring for those in need in partnership with the people we serve.

To achieve our vision of health for a better world, Providence combines a long-standing commitment to improving community health with expertise in high-quality care to create healthy communities and promote health equity.

Our community benefit programs are vital to this vision. Each year, Providence ministries and affiliates identify unmet needs and respond with strategic investments in community health. These investments help ensure basic health needs are met and serve to remove barriers to care, build community resilience and innovate for the future.

In 2023, Providence ministries and affiliates invested nearly $2.1 billion in community benefit programs, including free and discounted, low-cost (charity care) and uncompensated and subsidized care.

This significant investment in community benefit programs represents an increased focus on addressing root causes of community health issues. It serves to increase equitable access to quality care at the community level and at scale across seven states.

Our steadfast commitment to responding to community need is one of the many ways we live out our Mission and continue to serve as a vital safety net for those who are vulnerable.
