Permian Regional Medical Center

What Permian Regional Medical Center does

Permian Regional Medical Center (PRMC) is a public hospital district operating under the Andrews County Hospital District in Andrews, Texas, providing comprehensive acute, emergency, outpatient, and post-acute healthcare services to residents of Andrews County and surrounding West Texas communities. The core facility houses a 24-hour Level IV Trauma emergency department with seven beds plus one triage room, an inpatient medical-surgical unit, an intermediate care unit, surgical suites, a Family Birthplace maternity unit, imaging (CT, MRI, mammography, ultrasound, nuclear medicine), a full laboratory, pharmacy, and rehabilitation therapies. Beyond the main campus, PRMC operates a network of wholly owned service lines including the Andrews Family Medicine Rural Health Clinic (a National Health Service Corps site with sliding-fee scale), Andrews Kidney Care Center (hemodialysis), a Quick Care walk-in clinic, Breast Care Center, Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation, Home Health, and Hospice.

The system extends into residential and senior care through a 90-bed Permian Residential Care Center built in 2004, a 22-bed Westbrook Village Memory Care Unit opened in 2023 with Positive Approach to Care certification, and Permian Place senior independent living duplexes; a Black Gold Health & Fitness 24-hour community fitness center rounds out the consumer-facing footprint. Technology infrastructure consists of standard third-party healthcare IT: a MEDITECH MHealth patient portal, ClearBalance patient financing, Luma Health-powered real-time wait-time display, and Hospital Price Index transparency integration, with no proprietary AI/ML or developed-in-house platform components. Governance is by a seven-member county hospital district board (President Jessica Varner, Vice President Carol Boswell, plus five additional members), with executive leadership including CFO Susan Fournier, CNO Danny Whitehead, and CMO Paul Slaughter. Revenue is generated from inpatient and outpatient clinical services billed to Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers, and self-pay patients, with formal indigent care and financial assistance programs plus subscription-based ancillary streams from senior living fees and fitness memberships.
