Descriptiontext

Saint Anne's Hospital is a 196-bed, full-service acute care Catholic hospital located in Fall River, Massachusetts, founded in 1906 by the Dominican Sisters of the Presentation. It operates as part of the Brown University Health system, an academic integrated delivery network affiliated with the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University. The hospital serves patients from southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island, delivering a broad portfolio of clinical services including emergency care, medical and radiation oncology, orthopedic surgery, cardiology, spine surgery, pain management, primary care, and pediatric specialty services, supported by four satellite facilities across Fall River, Swansea, North Dartmouth, and Attleboro.

The hospital's technology stack centers on advanced medical devices and procedural capabilities rather than digital platforms. Notable investments include the GLOBUS Excelsius 3D imaging platform paired with robotic surgical systems for spine surgery, and a pioneering renal denervation program for uncontrolled hypertension that performed the first such procedure in southeastern Massachusetts in April 2026. The institution has earned 29 consecutive Leapfrog Hospital Safety 'A' grades, placing it among only 11 hospitals nationwide with that distinction.

Saint Anne's operates as a private, nonprofit subsidiary of Brown University Health, generating revenue primarily through patient services billed to commercial insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, and self-pay patients. Its go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, driven by emergency department access, physician referrals through the Brown Health Medical Group network, community outreach (e.g., partnerships with local police and EMS), and digital channels including the Brown University Health website, MyChart patient portal, social media, and the Be Well newsletter. The hospital's positioning emphasizes long-standing community trust, safety record, and access to advanced specialty care within an academic health system.
