What Hospital Bom Pastor does

Hospital Bom Pastor is a non-profit charitable hospital (hospital beneficente) founded in 1951 and operated by Associação Beneficente de Igrejinha, located in Igrejinha, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The hospital functions as a regional reference institution serving patients from approximately 200 municipalities across Rio Grande do Sul, offering a comprehensive portfolio of clinical services including 24/7 emergency care (Pronto Atendimento) with reported average wait times of 19 minutes for adults and 69 minutes for pediatrics, a maternity ward with the humanized prenatal Programa Nascer-Bem and Virtual Nursery platform, a surgical center specializing in oral-maxillofacial and orthognathic surgery with 3D planning capabilities, specialty outpatient consultations, clinical/surgical/pediatric hospitalization, and mental health services.

The hospital's technology differentiator is its SurgiFace Experience international training program in orthognathic surgery utilizing 3D planning technology, which has attracted medical professionals from Russia and positioned the hospital as an emerging international reference in continuing medical education. The hospital maintains a Virtual Nursery (Berçário Virtual) digital platform with 384 pages of newborn records spanning 2017-2026 for family engagement.

The business model is multi-stream: reimbursements from Brazil's Unified Health System (SUS) for public patients, health insurance plan partnerships for insured patients, direct payments from private patients, voluntary donations through the Vida & Saúde donor card program (which also provides access to a network of 100+ local business partners), and government funding through parliamentary amendments from federal and state deputies for operational costs and equipment acquisition. The hospital is led by President Wolmir Muller, Director João Schmitt, and Technical Director Dr. Isnard Freitas Leivas, and is currently undergoing a physical expansion construction project.
