Barnes-Kasson Hospital

What Barnes-Kasson Hospital does

Barnes-Kasson Hospital (legal name: Barnes-Kasson County Hospital) is a non-profit Critical Access Hospital (CAH) founded in 1904 and headquartered in Susquehanna Depot, Pennsylvania. The institution operates a 58-bed campus combining acute inpatient care with a post-acute skilled nursing facility, a 24-hour emergency department, four outpatient family health clinics distributed across Susquehanna County (Susquehanna, New Milford, Hallstead, and Erie Blvd), a dental office, and rehabilitation services spanning radiology/imaging, eye care, physical therapy, and walk-in urgent care. Its service area spans rural Susquehanna County, northern Wayne County (Pennsylvania), and southern Broome County (New York), with a clinical mix that includes cardiology, dermatology, OB/GYN, and podiatry specialty coverage supplied through the main campus and clinic network.

The hospital's revenue model is service-fee healthcare billing processed through commercial insurance, Medicare, Medicare Advantage, Medicaid managed care plans (AmeriHealth Caritas Northeast, Geisinger Family, UPMC), and self-pay arrangements — with published gross and discounted-cash charges (semi-private room $2,000 gross / $1,400 cash) and a federally guidelines-aligned financial assistance / sliding-fee program. Pricing transparency is operationalized via an online Price Estimator Tool and a machine-readable standard charges file, and COVID-19 cash testing is listed at $225. Ten named in-network payer relationships (Aetna, Highmark BCBS, Cigna, Geisinger Health Plan, Medicare, United Healthcare, Humana, plus Medicaid MCOs) constitute the commercial counterparty network.

Technology infrastructure consists of standard healthcare IT — a MyCareCorner patient portal (in migration/transition phase), Microsoft 365 email, and conventional EMR systems — with no disclosed proprietary technology, no AI/ML capability, and no data platform. Operations are supported by a 251–500 employee workforce, and the institution was recognized in 2025 with the Chartis Performance Leadership Award. The hospital has no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed funding rounds, consistent with its community-owned non-profit CAH structure serving a stable rural catchment.
