Hotel Dieu Hospital

What Hotel Dieu Hospital does

Kingston Health Sciences Centre (KHSC) is an integrated public academic health sciences organization operating in Kingston, Ontario, under Ontario's publicly funded hospital system. It was formed in 2017 through the merger of Hotel Dieu Hospital and Kingston General Hospital, both of which continue to operate as distinct legacy sites within a single governing structure. KHSC serves patients and families across southeastern Ontario as a regional referral centre, delivering a broad portfolio of clinical services including emergency care, cancer care, surgical care, mental health and addiction services, diagnostic imaging, laboratory and pharmacy services, cardiac care, renal services, pediatrics, bariatric care, and obstetrics. The organization also operates the KGH Research Institute for health research and clinical trials, and is a core teaching hospital affiliated with Queen's University.

KHSC's technology foundation comprises conventional healthcare information systems, including Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and digital health platforms supporting patient care delivery, with a Virtual Care service enabling remote video consultations as a channel extension to in-person care. Distribution is primarily through two physical hospital sites in downtown Kingston, supplemented by the virtual care channel and a clinical referral network serving community healthcare providers across the region. Marketing and patient engagement are conducted through the institutional website, earned media coverage, and organic social media presence.

As a public hospital operating under Ontario's government-funded healthcare model, KHSC does not generate commercial revenue through market-priced services. Patient care is funded primarily through Ontario Ministry of Health base funding and OHIP-insured billings, with limited direct billing for uninsured services. The organization operates as an independent not-for-profit corporation under the Ontario Not-for-Profit Corporations Act, with no parent company, and is accountable to the provincial government and the communities it serves. Strategic direction is set through multi-year plans (2024-2027) and executed via annual corporate plans, with public accountability delivered through quarterly and annual reports and fiscal accountability disclosures.
