Frankfort Regional Medical Center

What Frankfort Regional Medical Center does

Frankfort Regional Medical Center is a full-service, for-profit acute care hospital located at 299 Kings Daughters Drive in Frankfort, Kentucky. Founded in 1974 and operated as part of HCA Healthcare's Capital Division, the facility serves Frankfort and the surrounding Franklin County community and employs between 501 and 1,000 staff. Its clinical footprint spans a 24/7 emergency department, ICU and NICU units, surgical services, cardiovascular care including open-heart surgery and a nationally recognized cardiac rehabilitation program, orthopedic care with robotic-assisted joint replacement, mental health and senior behavioral health services, women's health, wound care with hyperbaric medicine, a sleep facility, diagnostic imaging (X-ray, ultrasound, mammography, CT angiography), and laboratory and rehabilitation services. Patient-facing digital channels include the MyHealthONE secure portal for records, scheduling and bill pay, plus a 24/7 Consult-A-Nurse telephone line.

The underlying technology stack combines on-site clinical equipment (robotic-assisted surgical systems, imaging modalities, hyperbaric chambers) with an HCA Healthcare-shared digital ecosystem. Third-party integrations include Surescripts for medication and clinical data exchange, Clearstep for symptom triage, Vital ERAdvisor for emergency-department workflow, WebMD Ignite for online health risk assessment, and Experian Health for online appointment scheduling. Marketing and community engagement operate across the facility website, social media (Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube), email newsletters, blog content, and on-the-ground community events such as Healthcare Day with Leadership Frankfort.

Revenue is generated on a fee-for-service basis through patient encounters, procedures, and hospital stays, paid by insurance carriers, Medicare, Medicaid, and other third-party payers, with ancillary income from pharmacy, laboratory, imaging, and rehabilitation services. The facility accepts multiple insurance plans, publishes CMS-mandated price-transparency files, and offers a Patient Payment Estimator. Distribution is exclusively local and direct-to-consumer via the main hospital, satellite outpatient departments, the MyHealthONE portal, and the Consult-A-Nurse referral line, with no evidence of geographic or vertical expansion beyond the Frankfort/Franklin County service area.
