01What it does

What Pih Health Good Samaritan Hospital does

Mission

We provide high-quality healthcare, without discrimination, and contribute to the health and well-being of our communities in an ethical, safe and fiscally prudent manner, in recognition of our charitable purpose.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Financial assistance and means-tested government programs: financial assistance, also known as charity care, is defined as free or discounted health services provided to individuals who cannot afford to pay and who meet the eligibility criteria of the organization's financial assistance policy. Pih Health Good Samaritan Hospital offers a generous financial assistance program, providing charity care to those with family income(s) at or below 400% of federal poverty level guidelines. The hospital has a policy to treat emergency and certain other patients regardless of their ability to pay. Under the charity care policy, charity care may be provided to people who are uninsured or underinsured and cannot afford to pay for their own medical care. In providing services to those patients participating in means-tested government health programs, such as medi-cal, Pih Health Good Samaritan Hospital realizes a collective net loss each fiscal year due to the shortfall created when the payments received from these programs are less than the cost of caring for public program beneficiaries. Number of persons served by financial assistance and means-tested government programs: 41,342

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 21 funders to 8 funders, grant income fell $1.6M → $699k.

4 of 45 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 9% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Left out of every figure on this page: $3.7M from 3 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Good Samaritan Institute for Research and Education). These are real filings, and they are not money PIH HEALTH GOOD SAMARITAN HOSPITAL raised.

From the IRS filings of PIH HEALTH GOOD SAMARITAN HOSPITAL’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 45 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

How concentrated its funding is

PIH HEALTH GOOD SAMARITAN HOSPITAL leans on a few funders — its largest provides 47% of grant income and the top three 77%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

60% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund PIH HEALTH GOOD SAMARITAN HOSPITAL.
