University Medical Center of Southern Nevada (UMC)

What University Medical Center of Southern Nevada (UMC) does

University Medical Center of Southern Nevada (UMC) is a county-owned, nonprofit academic medical center headquartered at 1800 W. Charleston Blvd., Las Vegas, founded in 1931. It operates a 541-bed main hospital alongside UMC Children's Hospital and is Nevada's only Nonprofit Level I Trauma Center, Verified Burn Center, and Multi-Organ Transplant Center, serving a 10,000-square-mile trauma catchment. UMC also runs the largest U.S. military-civilian medical partnership, integrating approximately 100 U.S. Air Force medics into clinical practice, and serves as the academic anchor for the Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine at UNLV.

Its core product is integrated acute and outpatient care across trauma, burn, transplant, surgical, cardiology, oncology-adjacent infusion, women's and neonatal (Level III NICU), mental health crisis stabilization, HIV/AIDS, liver, and primary/urgent care services. Clinical technology includes da Vinci Xi, ROSA, and Ion robotic systems (the latter being the first in Nevada), Epic MyChart-based UMC Online Care telemedicine launched as a unified platform in March 2025, and 24-hour pathology lab services accredited by the College of American Pathologists. Outpatient access is delivered through 9+ Quick Care/Primary Care clinics across the Las Vegas Valley plus a 35-chair Crisis Stabilization Center and an airport COVID testing site.

The business model is a county-owned safety-net hospital revenue model: UMC generates revenue from patient care services — emergency, trauma, surgical, inpatient, outpatient, telemedicine, infusion, imaging, and lab — supplemented by public/county funding and charitable donations via the UMC Foundation (which raised over $2 million in 2022). UMC provides care regardless of ability to pay and publishes standard charges per 45 CFR 180.50. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via the main hospital, regional clinics, and 24/7 telemedicine, with referral flow from community primary care and the Air Force partnership. Standardized, publicly disclosed pricing includes COVID-19 PCR at $130 (standard, 24–36 hours) and $200 (express, 1–2 hours).
