As it stands, here are the top five nonprofit health systems by hospital count and revenue, according to an infographic created by The Wall Street Journal.
- Ascension (St. Louis) — 141 hospitals; $22.6 billion in revenue
- Catholic Health Initiatives (Englewood, Colo.) — 100 hospitals; $15.5 billion
- Trinity Health (Livonia, Mich.) — 93 hospitals; $15.2 billion
- Providence St. Joseph (Renton, Wash.) — 50 hospitals; $22.2 billion
- Dignity Health (San Francisco) — 39 hospitals; $12.9 billion
However, recently announced mergers between Dignity Health and CHI and Ascension and Providence St. Joseph would significantly alter the healthcare landscape.
The merged Ascension-Providence St. Joseph entity would comprise 191 hospitals and maintain an annual revenue of $44.8 billion, while the combined CHI-Dignity Health organization would be composed of 139 hospitals and $28.4 billion in revenue.
The merged entities, if approved by state and federal regulators, would become the top two nonprofit health systems in the nation by hospital count.
