Saint Francis Health System

What Saint Francis Health System does

Saint Francis Health System is a Catholic not-for-profit health system headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma, founded in 1960 and operating with over 12,000 employees. It runs six hospitals across eastern Oklahoma — Saint Francis Hospital, Saint Francis Hospital South, Saint Francis Hospital Muskogee, Saint Francis Hospital Vinita, Laureate Psychiatric Clinic and Hospital, and Saint Francis Children's Hospital — and complements the inpatient footprint with the Warren Clinic primary care network, multiple specialty care centers, a Level I Trauma Center, and a Pediatric Emergency Center. The flagship Saint Francis Hospital South recently completed a $357 million expansion that added a Joint Replacement and Spine Center, signaling material capacity and service-line growth.

The system's technology stack is anchored by Epic, with the Epic MyChart patient portal powering online scheduling, medical record access, billing, and telehealth scheduling, and EpicCare Access serving the physician community. Patient-facing digital tools include a Virtual Urgent Care service, a Price Estimator for cost transparency, and the Well Connected by Warren Clinic provider-matching tool. In February 2026, Saint Francis launched a joint Hospital-at-Home program with DispatchHealth, currently staffed for 5–6 patients with a virtual unit designed for roughly 40 patients and an initial 20-mile service radius around Tulsa.

Revenue is generated primarily through patient care services — acute inpatient care, outpatient services, emergency and trauma services, diagnostic imaging, laboratory services, and specialty care — supplemented by telehealth, virtual urgent care, and the new hospital-at-home acute care service. As a not-for-profit, the system reinvests surpluses into facilities and community programs; pricing is pay-as-you-go for most services, with published unit prices for items such as the $99 heart screening, and the system provides machine-readable standard charges files and financial assistance programs. Its customers are the general patient population of eastern Oklahoma across all age groups, with particular depth in acute, trauma, pediatric, behavioral, and orthopedic care.

Direct peers

• Ascension St. John Medical Center: Ascension St. John is the other major Catholic-affiliated, multi-hospital system serving the Tulsa metro and eastern Oklahoma. It directly overlaps Saint Francis on trauma, cardiovascular, oncology, and women's/children's services and is the closest head-to-head competitor for patient share in the region.
• Hillcrest HealthCare System: Hillcrest operates multiple acute-care hospitals and specialty centers in the Tulsa metro (including Hillcrest Medical Center, Hillcrest Hospital South, Henryetta, Cushing, Claremore, and Bailey Medical Center). It is the largest non-Catholic competitor to Saint Francis within the same geography, with overlapping service lines.
• Integris Health: Integris Health is the largest Oklahoma-based non-profit health system, operating hospitals, specialty institutes, and ambulatory sites across the Oklahoma City metro and statewide. It is the primary out-of-Tulsa competitor for tertiary referrals from eastern Oklahoma and a comparable scale Catholic/non-profit regional peer.
• OU Health: OU Health is Oklahoma's academic health system anchored by OU Medical Center, Oklahoma Children's Hospital, and Stephenson Cancer Center. It competes with Saint Francis on tertiary/specialty referrals across the state and offers a comparable mix of academic and community-based care delivery.

Broad incumbents

• Mercy Health: Mercy is one of the largest Catholic non-profit health systems in the U.S., operating dozens of hospitals across multiple states. It shares Saint Francis's faith-based operating model, Epic-based digital stack, and emphasis on integrated regional networks, making it a strategic comparable for governance and capital allocation patterns.
• CommonSpirit Health: CommonSpirit is one of the largest U.S. non-profit Catholic health systems, formed from the merger of Catholic Health Initiatives and Dignity Health. It provides a broad incumbent benchmark for how Catholic systems scale, deploy digital infrastructure, and operate across diverse regional markets.
• Ascension Health: Ascension is the parent organization of Ascension St. John and one of the largest U.S. Catholic non-profit health systems. It provides the broader strategic context for Saint Francis's competitive positioning versus the Ascension network in eastern Oklahoma.
• HCA Healthcare: HCA is the largest U.S. for-profit hospital operator with extensive presence in Oklahoma and the broader region. It serves as the for-profit incumbent benchmark for labor cost discipline, capital deployment, and ambulatory network strategy that Saint Francis must counter as a non-profit.

Regional players

• Ardent Health Partners: Ardent Health Partners is a physician-founded health system with hospitals across Oklahoma (including Oklahoma Heart Hospital and Hillcrest-style community sites). It is a regional peer with overlapping ambulatory and acute-care exposure and a comparable Epic-based operating model.

Emerging players

• DispatchHealth: DispatchHealth is the in-home urgent care and acute-care partner that operates Saint Francis's Hospital-at-Home program in Tulsa. As an emerging at-home care delivery player, it represents both a strategic partner and a competitive model for hospital-level care delivered outside hospital walls.
