Lawrence County Memorial Hospital

What Lawrence County Memorial Hospital does

Lawrence County Memorial Hospital (LCMH) is a county-operated, non-profit Critical Access Hospital located at 2200 State Street in Lawrenceville, Illinois, serving as the sole inpatient facility for Lawrence County — the easternmost county in Illinois, bordering southwestern Indiana. The hospital opened on July 5, 1950 under federal Hill-Burton legislation with 61 employees and currently operates fewer than 25 inpatient beds alongside a 24-hour emergency department. Its service portfolio spans 21 clinical lines, including emergency care, primary care, surgical services, orthopedics, urology, podiatry, pain management, women's health, pediatrics, rheumatology, infusion therapy, imaging and radiology, laboratory, cardiopulmonary, occupational medicine, nutrition services, and therapy services (physical, occupational, speech), plus a Medicare-authorized Swing Bed program for post-acute skilled nursing and rehabilitation.

The hospital's underlying technology stack is conventional for a rural facility: electronic health records with the MyCareCorner patient portal, a telehealth platform used at the Rural Health Clinic, and standard diagnostic imaging systems. In 2024, LCMH launched the Walk With A Doc community health initiative, a free monthly walking program for residents. The Primary Care Clinic operates as a federally designated Rural Health Clinic and was recognized in 2022 by the Lilypad Awards as one of the top 25 provider-based Rural Health Clinics in the nation and top 5 in the Midwest.

LCMH generates revenue through patient care services billed to Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, and self-pay — an arrangement characteristic of cost-based Critical Access Hospital reimbursement under Medicare. Revenue streams are organized around inpatient and emergency services, primary and specialty clinic outpatient visits, Swing Bed Medicare reimbursement, infusion and therapy services, and ancillary diagnostic testing. Patient acquisition is community-led, relying on referrals, the triennial Community Health Needs Assessment required under the Affordable Care Act, and outreach programs rather than paid marketing. The hospital operates three Lawrenceville locations (main campus, Acute Care and Primary Care Clinic at 2111 Lexington Avenue, and Urology Clinic at 2402 West Haven Rd) plus telehealth, and is governed by an independent Board of Directors under a 2019 affiliation with Deaconess Health System. Revenue, financial performance, and headcount are not publicly disclosed.
