Iredell Health System

What Iredell Health System does

Iredell Health System is a 247-bed, nonprofit, locally owned and managed integrated health system headquartered in Statesville, North Carolina, founded in 1954 and operating across Iredell County and nine surrounding counties. It serves a regional population through a 24/7 emergency department (the sole ED in Statesville), a flagship acute care hospital, an outpatient services building, a 68,000 sq ft Mooresville campus, ambulatory surgery center, multiple imaging centers, the Iredell Physician Network of 170+ providers, home health, behavioral health (added in 2024), and a graduate medical education residency program. The system employs approximately 2,000 staff and 275+ licensed providers.

The platform is anchored on Cerner Millennium Electronic Health Record with a HealtheLife patient portal, Apple Health integration, and Cerner Ignite open APIs, supported by advanced clinical technology including a Siemens Artis Zee PURE cardiac catheterization lab, Siemens SOMATOM Sensation 64 CT, 3D mammography, a fixed PET/CT system (the first in the county), Ion robotic-assisted lung cancer detection, minimally invasive spine surgery, and the Boston Scientific Precision Spectra spinal cord stimulator. Service lines span cancer, cardiovascular, maternity, neuro/spine, orthopedics, wound care and hyperbarics, infusion, dialysis, urgent care, occupational medicine, and corporate wellness.

Revenue is generated through fee-for-service patient care billed to Medicare, Medicaid, commercial payers, VA, and workers' compensation, supplemented by per-visit home health billing, unit-priced self-pay screening (e.g., Mammo Mondays at $175, Fit for Life at $54.10/month), employer corporate wellness contracts, and philanthropy through the Iredell Health Foundation. The system is accredited by DNV Healthcare USA, the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer, the American College of Radiology, the American College of Cardiology (Chest Pain Center since 2011), The Joint Commission (stroke), the College of American Pathologists, the American Diabetes Association (since 1996), and the Accreditation Commission for Health Care.
