Willapa Harbor Hospital

What Willapa Harbor Hospital does

Willapa Harbor Hospital is a 10-bed Critical Access Hospital and Public Hospital District (No. 2 of Pacific County, Washington) providing comprehensive inpatient, outpatient, emergency, and primary care services to the residents of rural North Pacific County from its main campus at 800 Alder Street, South Bend, WA, supplemented by the Willapa Medical Clinic (a Rural Health Clinic) and a Weekend Walk-In Clinic. The facility was constructed in 1954 under a Public Hospital District governance structure dating to 1946 and serves a population in which over 25% of residents are over 65. Service lines span 24/7 emergency care, hospitalist-based inpatient care, general surgery, cardiology (delivered through an Olympia Health LLC visiting-specialist partnership), cardiopulmonary and cardiac rehabilitation, infusion therapy, swing-bed post-acute recovery, diagnostic imaging (including 3D mammography introduced in 2021), laboratory, diabetic education, and holistic pain management in partnership with HPM. The hospital operates within Washington's Critical Access Hospital and Rural Health Clinic regulatory frameworks, receiving Medicare reimbursements at 101% of reasonable costs and enhanced Medicaid reimbursements for primary care, supplemented by property tax revenue ($1.30 per $1,000 of assessed valuation) and 340B prescription drug savings captured through a partnership with South Bend Pharmacy announced November 2025.

The technology stack relies on standard commercial healthcare IT: the MyChart patient portal for EHR access and patient billing, telemedicine platforms for virtual visits, clinical laboratory analyzers, CT and nuclear medicine imaging, and cardiac monitoring devices (Holter, EKG, treadmill/ergometer/Nustep stress equipment). No proprietary technology, AI/ML capabilities, or patents are evidenced; all digital systems are vendor-provided commodity platforms. 2024 service utilization data demonstrates operating scale at approximately 200 inpatient admissions, 27,000+ outpatient visits, 5,500+ emergency visits, 1,000+ surgery visits, and 75,000+ laboratory tests annually.

Revenue is generated through multiple streams: cost-reimbursed patient services billed to Medicare/Medicaid and private payers, CAH cost-based reimbursements, RHC enhanced primary care payments, 340B prescription program savings (post-November 2025), and an annual property tax levy on district residents with a corresponding tax credit program that allows patients to offset hospital bills against property taxes paid. The hospital maintains governance through an elected Board of Commissioners and is supported by the separately incorporated 501(c)(3) Willapa Harbor Health Foundation (established 1999). A $42 million voter-approved bond on the April 2025 ballot funds a portion of a planned $96.4 million replacement facility on land acquired in 2023 in Raymond, WA, supported additionally by State, federal, and private foundation funding pursuits. Specific annual revenue figures are not publicly disclosed.
