Weatherford Regional Hospital

What Weatherford Regional Hospital does

Weatherford Regional Hospital is a community-based, publicly governed acute-care hospital operated by the Weatherford Hospital Authority under Oklahoma law, serving patients across western Oklahoma from a 62,000 square foot facility opened in 2007 in Weatherford, Oklahoma. Its clinical portfolio centers on a 24/7 Level IV Trauma emergency department, a Medical/Surgical Inpatient unit with a Medicare-certified Swing Bed program, a Women's Center for labor and delivery, and 24/7 laboratory services, complemented by outpatient imaging (GE SIGNA ARTIST EVO MRI with Air-coils, GE Optima 128-slice CT660, Hologic Selenia Dimensions 3D mammography, digital Fuji x-ray, and Philips 5G Epic ultrasound), surgery, outpatient infusion, sleep lab, physical therapy/rehabilitation, and outpatient lab and X-ray. Care is delivered through a regional network that includes the Weatherford Family Clinic, Weatherford Family Practice, OBGYN Clinic, Surgery Clinic, PT/Rehab clinic, the WRH Hydro Family Clinic, and a walk-in Convenient Care clinic open Monday–Saturday.

The hospital's revenue model is built on patient service revenue from inpatient, outpatient, emergency, surgical, lab, imaging, rehabilitation, infusion, and clinic encounters, billed through insurance with patient cost estimates provided via a Para-HCFS Good Faith Estimate tool, supplemented by a sliding-fee discount program for uninsured and underinsured patients. Ancillary professional services — radiology reads, pathology, and emergency physician staffing — are provided by separate-billing partners (Diagnostic Imaging Associates, Heartland Pathology, and Team Health) who issue independent statements. Digital patient engagement runs through the SSM Health MyChart (Epic) portal for bill pay, scheduling, prescription refills, and provider messaging, while the Weatherford Regional Hospital Foundation and a volunteer corps provide parallel community fundraising and operational support. The patient base spans individual community consumers, women and maternal-health patients, walk-in Convenient Care users, and uninsured patients on the sliding-fee schedule, with no enterprise or institutional customer concentration disclosed.

Revenue model

1. Hospital and clinic patient service revenue: Primary revenue from billing patients and insurance companies for inpatient, outpatient, emergency, surgical, lab, imaging, rehabilitation, infusion, and clinic services rendered. WRH submits claims to insurance on the patient's behalf and accepts payments online via MyChart, by phone, and in person at the Business Office.
2. Sliding-fee and financial assistance program: A discounted/sliding fee schedule is available based on family size and income for patients unable to pay; access to services is not denied due to inability to pay. This functions as a community-benefit/charity care component of the revenue model.
3. Philanthropy, bequests, and hospital foundation giving: The Weatherford Regional Hospital Foundation accepts planned gifts, bequests, and contributions from the community; over $3 million in community support contributed to the 2007 facility build. Funds hospital operations and capital projects beyond what insurance/patient revenue covers.
4. Volunteer and community contributions: Volunteers contribute many hours of service and financial assistance to the hospital, including operating the information desk, delivering mail and flowers, and supporting clerical and event work.
5. Cost estimator / price transparency tool revenue support: Provides a cost estimator tool for personalized out-of-pocket estimates before visits, linking to public price transparency disclosures; underpins patient financial planning and collections for self-pay patients.
