DRH Health

What DRH Health does

DRH Health is a not-for-profit regional healthcare system headquartered in Duncan, Oklahoma, serving communities across five southwest Oklahoma counties (Stephens, Jefferson, Cotton, Comanche, and Grady). The system comprises two hospitals — Duncan Regional Hospital (110 beds) and Jefferson County Hospital (18 beds) — for a total of 128 beds, alongside more than 20 provider clinics including 13 Rural Health Clinics and specialty clinics in oncology, cardiology, orthopedics, wound care, behavioral health, and addiction medicine. It was founded in the 1980s and employs between 1,001 and 5,000 people.

The system's underlying technology stack centers on the MEDITECH electronic health record, with a recent (November 2025) deployment of Commure's Ambient AI for automated clinical documentation. Supporting infrastructure includes PowerShare for medical imaging exchange, barcode patient identification, Computerized Provider Order Entry with medication alerts, telemedicine platforms, remote patient monitoring via wearables, and the MyCare patient portal for records access, bill pay, messaging, and virtual visits. The Quest for Zero safety program overlays clinical workflows with daily tiered safety huddles and process monitoring.

DRH Health operates a patient-care revenue model across acute, primary, specialty, and behavioral health services, supplemented by the federal 340B Drug Pricing Program (which generated $2.4M in FY2023 savings) and substantial community benefit activity, including $36.4M in uncompensated and charity care in FY2023. As a critical access hospital system serving a high proportion of uninsured, Medicare, and Medicaid populations, DRH reinvests operating margins into technology, facilities, and staff. Its go-to-market is community-driven: direct patient acquisition through local clinics, hospital referrals, walk-in emergency care, patient portal engagement, community wellness events, and partnerships such as the Cancer Centers of Southwest Oklahoma and Pathways to a Healthier You.
