Southern Coos Hospital & Health Center

What Southern Coos Hospital & Health Center does

Southern Coos Hospital & Health Center (SCHHC) is a Critical Access Hospital (CAH) founded in 1955 and operating as a public hospital district entity under the Southern Coos Health District in Bandon, Oregon. It delivers a full continuum of community healthcare including a 24/7 Emergency Department, inpatient services, surgical services (general surgery, orthopedics via partnership with South Coast Orthopaedic Associates), medical imaging (CT, MRI, ultrasound, mammography, minimally invasive biopsies), laboratory, respiratory therapy, and a Swing Bed Program. The hospital also operates a Primary Care Clinic and Multi-Specialty Clinic staffed by family physicians, a family nurse practitioner, and a general surgeon, and in 2025 launched a new retail pharmacy that leverages the CAH's 340B drug pricing entitlement.

SCHHC's business model rests on cost-based Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement under CAH status, fee-for-service patient care (with a sliding fee schedule ensuring access regardless of ability to pay), retail pharmacy transactions, and foundation/grants funding through the affiliated Southern Coos Health Foundation (which runs the Golf for Health Classic, Women's Health Day, the Mary Richards Memorial Scholarship, and the Bandon School District School Nurse Program). Underlying technology is built on the Epic electronic health records system with an online patient portal (Orca). Distribution is purely direct-to-patient and place-based across the 900 11th Street SE main campus, the Multi-Specialty Clinic, three Bandon School District schools, and on-site event medical coverage (including the 125th U.S. Women's Amateur Championship at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort). Leadership under CEO Raymond T. Hino, MPA, FACHE has driven two strategic plans, DNV-GL Healthcare accreditation (November 2022), a new retail pharmacy, and an in-progress Master Facilities Plan.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Bay Area Hospital: Coos Bay, Oregon acute care hospital serving the same South Coast region as SCHHC; it is the largest referral hospital nearby and a direct competitor for inpatient, emergency, and specialty cases from the Bandon catchment. SCHHC even partnered with Bay Area Hospital providers for the 2025 U.S. Women's Amateur Championship.
• Coquille Valley Hospital: Critical Access Hospital in Coquille, Oregon (about 25 miles from Bandon), offering similar rural community hospital services including primary care, emergency, and outpatient care; competes for the same South Coast patient base.
• Lower Umpqua Hospital: Critical Access Hospital in Reedsport, Oregon, providing emergency, inpatient, surgical, and outpatient services on the southern Oregon coast; competes for the same coastal rural community patient base.
• Curry General Hospital: Critical Access Hospital in Gold Beach, Oregon, offering comparable rural community services including emergency, primary care, imaging, and lab; serves an overlapping coastal southern Oregon footprint.

Regional players

• Adventist Health Tillamook: Critical Access Hospital on the northern Oregon coast serving Tillamook County; comparable rural coastal community hospital within the broader Oregon CAH peer set, though it does not directly compete with SCHHC geographically.
• Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital: Critical Access Hospital in Lincoln City, Oregon, part of Samaritan Health Services; provides similar small-community hospital services on the Oregon coast but operates in a separate service area from Bandon.
• Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital: Critical Access Hospital in Newport, Oregon, also part of Samaritan Health Services; comparable rural coastal Oregon community hospital with full outpatient and inpatient service mix.

Broad incumbents

• PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center at RiverBend: Large regional health system based in Springfield/Eugene that has been a career destination for SCHHC board members and competes broadly for specialty referrals from rural southern Oregon. Provides a broader regional referral alternative versus SCHHC's narrower service offering.
• Mercy Medical Center (Roseburg): Regional acute care hospital in Roseburg, Oregon (now part of CommonSpirit Health); offers a much broader specialty mix that pulls tertiary referrals from rural South Coast communities that might otherwise stay local.
• Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) Hospital: Quaternary academic medical center in Portland and OHSU School of Medicine faculty connection referenced in SCHHC physician backgrounds; the dominant referral destination for highly complex South Coast cases that exceed rural CAH capabilities.
