Edward-Elmhurst Health

What Edward-Elmhurst Health does

Edward-Elmhurst Health is a nonprofit integrated healthcare delivery organization headquartered in Naperville, Illinois, serving patients and families across the Chicago metropolitan area. It operates as a key regional brand within the parent Endeavor Health system, which was formed through the merger of Edward-Elmhurst Health, NorthShore, Swedish Hospital, and NCH (Northwest Community Healthcare), and now spans nine hospitals, more than 300 care sites, 46 immediate care locations, and over 6,000 physicians and advanced practice providers supported by a 27,000+ person workforce.

The organization delivers a comprehensive care portfolio spanning primary care, cardiovascular care, cancer care, neurosciences, orthopaedics, emergency care, telehealth, immediate care, imaging, lab testing, pharmacy, and rehabilitation. Its underlying technology platform is the Epic Systems MyChart patient portal, branded as Edward-Elmhurst MyChart, which provides integrated electronic health records, online scheduling, provider messaging, and billing across the Endeavor Health network. Digital access is reinforced by telehealth channels and self-serve portal tools, while distribution is anchored in a dense network of hospitals, immediate care walk-in sites, and specialty clinics.

Edward-Elmhurst Health generates revenue through fee-for-service and insurance-reimbursed patient care delivered across inpatient, outpatient, emergency, primary, and specialty settings, with pricing varying by service, insurance coverage, and patient financial situation. Its go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer, supported by physician referrals, community programs, and a multi-channel marketing presence. As a nonprofit, the system reinvests into community health, exemplified by the $8.1 million 2026 Community Investment Fund, and pursues workforce pipeline partnerships such as its collaboration with ASPIRE Lake County to develop future clinical talent.
