Lasalle General Hospital

What Lasalle General Hospital does

LaSalle General Hospital is a rural integrated community hospital operating in Jena, Louisiana, under governmental ownership by Hospital Service District No. 2 of LaSalle Parish. Founded in 1970 and licensed for 49 acute inpatient beds, the hospital delivers a comprehensive continuum of care that includes inpatient acute services, emergency and 911 ambulance response, a Family Medicine Clinic, Home Health, a Behavioral Health Unit for geriatric patients, a Swing Bed rehabilitation program, occupational health (LGH Employer Solutions), and a New Vision medical stabilization service for substance withdrawal. Diagnostic imaging capabilities cover MRI, CT, 3D mammography, bone densitometry, ultrasound, echocardiography, nuclear medicine, and X-ray, supported by a facility-wide Electronic Health Record and telemedicine-enabled primary care.

The hospital generates revenue primarily through patient care services billed to Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurers on a per-encounter or per-day basis, supplemented by per-service occupational health contracts with local employers and Ambulance Service District support. Distribution is anchored by the main Jena campus, a separate Employer Solutions office in Jena, an off-site New Vision intake location, and a Jonesville Rural Health Clinic serving adjacent Catahoula Parish. Patient acquisition is multi-channel: 911 emergency response, walk-in clinic appointments, physician referrals, employer contracts, and a self-serve MyCareCorner patient portal (web, iOS, Android) for records, scheduling, lab results, and bill pay.

Governance is community-led: a Board of Commissioners (chaired by Janice F. Dosher, RN, BSN) oversees operations with CEO Lana B. Francis, who joined the organization in 1980. The enterprise competes as a regional monopoly-style provider within LaSalle Parish, reinforced by longstanding relationships, state-level recognition for rural healthcare excellence, and ambulance-based emergency response. There is no private equity ownership and no parent company; funding flows through governmental appropriations, patient service revenue, and local tax support. The hospital currently employs 51–100 people across its service lines.
