Our Lady of the Lake Children's Health

What Our Lady of the Lake Children's Health does

Our Lady of the Lake Children's Health is the pediatric service line of the Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System (FMOL Health), a Catholic non-profit health system based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. It operates as the largest pediatric network in Louisiana, fielding more than 300 pediatric providers and specialists across more than 30 subspecialties, and it serves approximately one million children across the state and into Mississippi. Care is delivered under multiple regional brands — Our Lady of the Lake Children's Health in Greater Baton Rouge, Our Lady of Lourdes Children's Health in Acadiana, St. Francis Pediatrics in Northeast Louisiana, Our Lady of the Angels Health on the Northshore, and select St. Dominic's Family Medicine locations in Greater Jackson — through three dedicated children's hospitals (Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Monroe), a network of primary and specialty clinics, and school-based health centers embedded in Louisiana high schools. Pediatric specialty services include cardiology, neurology, oncology, neonatology, critical care, endocrinology, gastroenterology, orthopedics, pulmonology, hematology, child and adolescent psychiatry, cleft and craniofacial care, genetics, and surgical subspecialties, with oncology delivered through a St. Jude Baton Rouge Affiliate partnership.

The operating platform is built on the FMOL Health shared infrastructure: an integrated electronic health record system, the MyChart patient portal for online scheduling, records access, and virtual visits, and a Kyruus Health-powered provider directory that supports real-time availability search and online booking. Telemedicine is offered through MyChart, including on weekends, holidays, and overnight, and the network runs ParentingU, a content platform for parents. Distribution is multi-channel — clinics, hospitals, school-based centers, walk-in clinics, and virtual visits — with digital channels (MyChart, Find a Doctor, organic social, ParentingU) layered on top.

The revenue model is fee-for-service healthcare delivery funded through insurance reimbursements, patient payments, and payor arrangements within FMOL Health. The entity is non-profit and does not have public shareholders. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by insurance coverage, service, and patient circumstances. The target customer segments are children and families seeking pediatric primary, preventive, and specialty care, and children with complex medical needs requiring subspecialist expertise. Demand is highly distributed across the Louisiana and Mississippi population, with revenue predictability anchored by regional demographic capture rather than enterprise customers.
