Westchester Medical Center

What Westchester Medical Center does

Westchester Medical Center Health Network (WMCHealth), founded in 1917 and headquartered in Valhalla, New York, operates as the only academic medical center in the Hudson Valley region. The network consists of eight hospitals (Westchester Medical Center, Maria Fareri Children's Hospital, Good Samaritan Hospital, HealthAlliance Hospital, MidHudson Regional Hospital, Bon Secours Community Hospital, St. Anthony Community Hospital, Margaretville Hospital) plus a Behavioral Health Center, numerous WMCHealth Physicians outpatient practices, a Specialty Pharmacy, and the WMCHealth Foundation. Across more than 5,000 employees, the network delivers tertiary and quaternary care through service lines including cancer, cardiovascular, neurosciences, orthopedics, women's health, pediatrics, emergency, mental/behavioral health, and transplant, and holds regional regulatory designations such as the only Level I Trauma Center in the area, NAEC Level 4 Epilepsy, AHA Gold Plus for Stroke, and ACC Transcatheter Valve certification.

WMCHealth generates revenue across inpatient, outpatient, emergency, surgical, diagnostic, and specialty care, funded through insurance plans, Medicare, Medicaid, and patient payments under a fee-for-service/contracted-payer model typical of U.S. academic health systems; detailed service pricing is not publicly disclosed. Distribution is direct to patient via hospital campuses, emergency departments, the WMCHealth Physicians outpatient network, and a patient portal for scheduling, medical records, and bill payment. Marketing runs through wmchealth.org, social channels, email newsletters, community events, and physician referral networks. Technology notable inside the network includes AI-enabled mammography claimed by CEO David Lubarsky to outperform radiologists, AI-powered revenue cycle management that delivered a 75% revenue lift and $21M in savings, structured ergonomics training research in ophthalmology, and Hologic 3D mammography deployed at HealthAlliance funded by the Foundation.

In April 2026 the network completed its full ownership of three hospitals previously operated in a decade-long joint venture with Bon Secours Mercy Health, structurally consolidating its regional footprint. The corporate parent itself remains private and not publicly traded, with no disclosed PE/VC ownership; corporate and administrative headcount was reduced by approximately 130 roles in November 2024 as part of broader restructuring concurrent with the AI operational rollout. Leadership is anchored by CEO David Lubarsky.
