Community Health Network

What Community Health Network does

Community Health Network is a non-profit integrated delivery network headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, operating more than 200 sites of care across Central Indiana. Founded in the 1960s by community members, the network comprises 10 hospitals (including Community Hospital East, North, South, Anderson, Howard Regional, Heart and Vascular, and the Westfield campus under construction), 13 health pavilions, 8 cancer centers, 6 emergency departments, 12 Community-GoHealth urgent care centers, 14 Community Clinic at Walgreens retail clinics, and a 400+ primary care provider network organized under Community Physician Network. Service lines span primary care, pediatrics, women's health and obstetrics (including perinatal nurse navigation and a CHOICE recovery program), oncology through a partnership with MD Anderson Cancer Center, cardiovascular care, orthopedics, bariatrics, behavioral health and addiction treatment (Community Fairbanks Recovery Center), rehabilitation across 16 locations, post-acute and home care, and pediatric and adult specialty care.

The network is built on an Epic-based digital infrastructure anchored by MyChart, which provides patient access to scheduling, bill pay, telehealth, and unified health records. Adjacent technology layers include Google Cloud for data interoperability, Microsoft Technology–based behavioral AI through Lirio for hyper-personalized patient journeys, the Nourish AI-powered dietitian platform spanning 50+ metabolic conditions, SanLuca's AI-enabled palliative care training, and TripleKey for real-time security and license compliance. Community Virtual Care offers on-demand video visits starting at $49 self-pay and scheduled virtual primary care.

Revenue is generated primarily through fee-for-service patient care reimbursed by insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, and self-pay, augmented by direct-to-employer contracts under Indiana's House Enrolled Act 1004, which mandates that the state's five largest nonprofit systems offer employer contracting at no more than 260% of Medicare rates — Community prices at 190%. Marketing and patient acquisition rely on a mix of community classes and events, a Health Minute blog, social media, free online health risk assessments, the MyChart self-serve portal, and direct contracting with Indiana employers. The organization employs roughly 17,000 caregivers and handles approximately 3.2 million outpatient visits and 7,900+ births annually.
