What BayCare does

BayCare Health System is a not-for-profit, community-based academic health system founded in 1997 and headquartered in Clearwater, Florida. It operates an integrated network of 16 not-for-profit hospitals across West Central Florida, supported by a multi-specialty physician group (BayCare Medical Group), BayCare HomeCare, BayCare Behavioral Health, outpatient imaging centers, laboratories, surgery centers, urgent care locations, and the BayCarePlus Medicare Advantage insurance plan (more than 20,500 members). The system employs approximately 33,669 team members, generates a stated $10 billion in annual economic impact, and is the largest provider of cardiac, behavioral health, and pediatric services in West Central Florida. Digital infrastructure includes the MyBayCare patient portal, the BayCare mobile app (test results, scheduling, symptom checker, doctor messaging), BayCareAnywhere telehealth visits, standardized 3D mammography, and a PROMS patient-reported outcome measurement program. Business model revenue is generated through patient care services billed to Medicare, Medicaid, commercial insurance, and patient responsibility; monthly Medicare Advantage premiums and member cost-sharing via BayCarePlus; and philanthropic contributions through hospital foundations. Patients access care through physician referrals, self-scheduling via website and mobile app, walk-in urgent care, telehealth, and BayCarePlus plan enrollment, with no parent company or external ownership.
