Atmore Community Hospital

What Atmore Community Hospital does

Atmore Community Hospital is a county-owned acute care community hospital located at 401 Medical Park Drive in Atmore, Alabama, governed by the Escambia County Healthcare Authority Board of Directors and operating continuously in the community for over sixty years. The hospital delivers a full-spectrum acute care portfolio through distinct branded service lines: ACH Complete Care, ACH Family Physicians and ACH Primary Care for primary and family medicine; ACH Outpatient Specialty Clinics for specialty consultations; ACH Therapy Services (physical, occupational, and rehabilitation therapies); ACH Home Care for in-home medical support; the ACH Wound Care Comprehensive Wound Healing Center (a 2025 Center of Excellence-recognized specialty program); Atmore Urgent Care for non-emergency immediate care; and Wheels of Wellness patient transportation. It serves the Atmore, Alabama population and surrounding Escambia County, with patient access via physician referral, emergency department walk-ins, urgent care walk-ins, and direct appointment scheduling (notably without a provider-referral requirement for the wound care center).

The hospital's technology stack consists of standard, vendor-managed healthcare IT rather than proprietary platforms. The Cerner Health-powered Patient Portal (echa.iqhealth.com) provides authenticated access to health records, scheduling, and provider messaging. FastHealth.AI and the FastNurse Personal Research Service support patient-facing research, medical dictionaries, and health-topic search. Persona Pay provides online bill payment, and Healthstream handles employee training and orientation. The hospital holds a CMS Four-Star Quality Rating, complies with CMS price transparency standards (posting gross charges, negotiated rates, and discounted cash prices), and operates a published Financial Assistance Policy with multi-language application forms.

Revenue mechanics are entirely service-based: net patient service revenue from inpatient admissions, emergency department visits, diagnostic imaging, laboratory services, surgical procedures, wound care treatments (debridement, skin substitutes, compression, hyperbaric therapy), and outpatient clinic visits billed to Medicare, Medicaid, HMOs, and private insurance with discounted cash pricing as a fallback. The go-to-market is sales-led through local community presence, physician referral networks, and the digital patient portal. The hospital's pricing model is transactional/take-rate, with pay-as-you-go billing, public gross-charge ranges (e.g., COVID-19 test $331 gross / $198.60 discounted; debridement $340 / $204; platelet rich plasma $3,250), and rate variation by payer and plan. There is no disclosed revenue figure, no parent-company revenue concentration outside the public Escambia County Healthcare Authority parent, and no capital-markets activity (no funding rounds, no M&A, no IPO).
