Tyler County Hospital

What Tyler County Hospital does

Tyler County Hospital is a 49-bed acute care rural hospital and public county hospital district located in Woodville, Texas, operating continuously since 1950 (originally as Tyler County Memorial Hospital). It is the sole hospital in Tyler County, offering 24/7 emergency services as a state-designated Level IV Trauma Center (since 2004), inpatient care, outpatient services, laboratory, radiology (X-ray, CT, ultrasound), pharmacy with automated dosage/interaction checking, cardiopulmonary services, diabetic education (ADA-approved curriculum), and discharge planning. Its primary customer base is the residents of Tyler County and surrounding East Texas communities, with payer mix including Medicare, Medicaid, and most private insurance, supplemented by a Charity Care Program (up to 90% discount) and an Indigent Care Program. The hospital derives revenue from patient services, county property taxes, and ancillary streams including a twelve-month LVN vocational nursing program (up to 72 students, 1,475+ graduates since 1960, ~$7,000 tuition). Wholly owned operating components include the Family Medical Clinic (Rural Health Clinic, acquired 2003), the LVN School (1960), the Hospital Foundation (2002), and the Hospital Auxiliary / Wildflower Gift Shop. Underlying technology is conventional healthcare IT — a Health Information Management System for records, coding, transcription, and regulatory reporting — with no disclosed AI/ML capabilities. Marketing and patient acquisition are community-based: local events, health awareness content, Facebook, Instagram, and a website blog.
