Perry County Memorial Hospital

What Perry County Memorial Hospital does

Perry County Memorial Hospital (PCMH) is a private, non-profit 25-bed Critical Access Hospital located in Tell City, Indiana, founded in 1950 and operating from a 117,000-square-foot facility opened in May 2015. The hospital provides a comprehensive range of inpatient and outpatient services including a 24/7 emergency department, a surgery center, Med-Surg and ICU care, laboratory and radiology diagnostic services, and a broad set of specialty lines covering cardiology, neurology, orthopedics, oncology and infusion, pain management, wound care, rehabilitation, and home care, plus wholly-owned Perry County EMS for emergency transport. PCMH supplements the main campus with six off-campus clinics serving Perry, Spencer, and Hancock Counties, employing more than 315 staff and operating as one of the county's largest employers.

The business model is patient care services revenue generated from acute inpatient stays, emergency department visits, outpatient clinic encounters, surgery, and ancillary diagnostics, with pricing structured through standard hospital billing rather than disclosed subscription or capitated contracts. Distribution is direct-to-patient through the hospital campus and clinic network, with physician referrals and partnerships with Deaconess Health System (affiliation announced December 2022), Ascension St. Vincent Evansville (management services agreement signed August 2019), and Owensboro Health (partnership announced October 2024) extending specialty service depth without requiring full-time on-site specialists. Technology footprint is modest but functional: a 24/7 staffed laboratory, telehealth-enabled neurology and provider-to-provider consultations, and most recently Suki AI ambient documentation deployed across clinics in December 2025.

Customer segments are dominated by local community residents and patients requiring specialty care or emergency services in the four-county rural catchment, with no enterprise or institutional customer concentration. Leadership is anchored by President and CEO Brian Herwig, in role since June 2016 following Joseph A. Stuber's retirement, with John B. Land serving as Chairman of the Board of Trustees. PCMH has accumulated several recent quality designations including CMS Five-Star Patient Satisfaction Rating (April 2025), 2025 Innovation in Quality Improvement Award from the Indiana Hospital Association, and ACHC accreditation (January 2025).
