Emory University Hospital

What Emory University Hospital does

Emory University Hospital is the flagship facility of Emory Healthcare, a non-profit academic health system affiliated with Emory University and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. The system comprises 11 hospitals, approximately 500 provider locations, the Emory Clinic (2,280 faculty physicians plus 536 nurse practitioners and 518 physician assistants), the Emory Healthcare Network (3,450+ physicians in 70+ subspecialties), and 3,028 system-wide licensed beds, supported by roughly 29,500 employees across the network. Emory Winship Cancer Institute — Georgia's only NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center — anchors oncology, while Emory Brain Health Center, Emory Heart & Vascular, Emory Transplant Center, and Emory Connected Care telehealth extend specialty reach across metro Atlanta and greater Georgia.

The technology foundation is built on Epic Systems' electronic health record with the MyChart patient portal, augmented by the Emory Find My Way indoor-navigation app (developed with Purple WiFi), PowerShare for external radiology image exchange, a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform, a Health Information Exchange for cross-system record sharing, and FHIR/USCDI v3 APIs (with OAuth2) that allow third-party apps to connect to patient records. Emory University Hospital is also the first hospital in the world to operate Microbot Medical's LIBERTY Endovascular Robotic System, the first FDA-cleared single-use endovascular robot, with full market release planned for April 2026. Operational and digital integrations include Google Analytics, Hotjar, Piwik Pro, and Kyruus provider search.

The business model is primarily fee-for-service patient care across inpatient stays, outpatient visits, procedures, diagnostics, telehealth, and clinical trials, billed to commercial insurance, Medicare/Medicaid, and self-pay patients with financial assistance available. Distribution is hybrid: direct through owned hospitals, clinics, urgent care/MinuteClinic (~60 locations), and telehealth; and indirect through the Emory Healthcare Network referral portal, joint ventures (St. Francis-Emory Healthcare), and regional affiliate hospitals. Marketing channels span the Emory Healthcare website and MyChart, SEO and physician-finder reviews, email, social media, community partnerships, the Emmy-winning "Your Fantastic Mind" partnership with Georgia Public Broadcasting, and the new Arthur M. Blank U.S. Soccer National Training Center founding partnership.
