Larkin Health System

What Larkin Health System does

Larkin Health System is a privately held, for-profit integrated healthcare delivery system headquartered in South Miami, Florida, operating three hospital campuses — Larkin Community Hospital South Miami, the 247-bed Larkin Community Hospital Palm Springs Campus in Hialeah, and the 50-bed Larkin Hospital Behavioral Health Services in Hollywood — plus an extended network of specialty centers, outpatient clinics, home health agencies covering Miami-Dade and Broward County, and educational institutions. It treats a broad patient population across acute care, emergency services, inpatient and outpatient behavioral health, oncology, neurology, orthopedics, cardiology, endocrinology, diagnostic imaging, dermatology, and senior living (through the 180-bed Floridian Gardens assisted living facility).

The system's technology backbone centers on a dense stack of advanced medical devices: Leksell Gamma Knife Perfexion and the third US-installed ZAP-X system for stereotactic radiosurgery of brain tumors and trigeminal neuralgia, the da Vinci robotic surgical platform, Focused Ultrasound for Essential Tremor, and Siemens Biograph 16 PET/CT among other imaging modalities. These capabilities underwrite specialty service lines at the Miami Neuroscience Center at Larkin, the Cancer Center at Larkin, the Center for Advanced Orthopedics at Larkin, and the Florida Academic Dermatology Center at Larkin.

Revenue is generated principally through insurance-billed inpatient and outpatient clinical services, with published price transparency and participation in major commercial plans (Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana) plus Medicare and Medicaid. A secondary revenue stream comes from teaching hospital activity: Larkin holds Florida Statutory Teaching Hospital status and offers Graduate Medical Education programs across 32 medical specialties, an Osteopathic Postdoctoral Training Institution designation through the American Osteopathic Association, the Larkin School of Nursing (ASN, RN-to-BSN, MSN), a College of Pharmacy, and the Larkin Clinical Research Network, all of which generate direct medical education payments (DGME/IME) and teaching-related subsidies in addition to feeding the clinical labor pipeline.
