Hennepin Healthcare Trauma Prevention Program

What Hennepin Healthcare Trauma Prevention Program does

Hennepin Healthcare Trauma Prevention Program operates within Hennepin Healthcare, a non-profit public healthcare system owned by Hennepin County, Minnesota, and headquartered at 730 South 8th Street in Minneapolis. Founded in 1976 as Hennepin County Medical Center (HCMC) and rebranding to Hennepin Healthcare in 2026, the system functions as an integrated academic medical center with a Level I Adult Trauma Center, 10 clinic locations across the Minneapolis metropolitan area, 850+ providers, and 5,001-10,000 total employees delivering 100+ specialized services. Annual volume includes 90,000+ emergency department visits and 3,000+ seriously injured patients treated at the Adult Trauma Center, with the trauma program serving as a regional referral hub for Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, North Dakota, and South Dakota.

The Trauma Prevention Program is the community-facing injury and violence prevention arm of the system, running multi-category initiatives that include youth programs such as Aquí Para Tí (serving Latino youth) and Between Us (adolescent-focused), maternal and infant safety efforts supported by the Baby Safety Foundation, and broader injury prevention work delivered in partnership with the Minnesota Department of Health and the City of Minneapolis. Operationally, the system runs on Epic's MyChart platform, which supports patient portal access, virtual care delivery (Video Visits and E-Visits), and care coordination across the clinic network.

Revenue mechanics are typical of a county-owned safety-net system and combine patient care billing, government reimbursement (Medicare/Medicaid), Hennepin County appropriations, and philanthropic contributions. There is no venture-style equity funding; growth is funded through operating cash flow, county support, and targeted grants. Customer concentration is structurally low because revenue is derived from a large, distributed patient population across multiple segments and payor types rather than from a small number of enterprise accounts.
