Mission
University hospitals (the system) is guided by its mission "to heal. To teach. To discover."
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Commitment to the community remains at the core of the system's mission: to heal. To teach. To discover. In 2024, university hospitals dedicated more than $511 million to community benefit programs in northeast ohio consisting of: - education and training = $123 million - research = $74 million - charity care = $72 million - medicaid shortfall = $207 million - community health improvement services, programs and support = $34 million - hospital care assurance program (hcap) receipts = ($60 million). Refer to schedule h for further detail on how the system measures and reports community benefit. Community benefit for 2024 totaled $511 million. In addition to charity care and insufficient funding from the medicaid program, the system incurs significant losses related to self-pay patients who fail to make payment for services rendered or insured patients who fail to remit co-payments and deductibles as required under applicable health insurance arrangements. In 2024, $139 million represented revenues for services provided that are deemed to be uncollectible. The system has a broad presence throughout northeast ohio, including cuyahoga, lorain, geauga, ashtabula, portage, ashland,…

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $6.4B to $2.4B (−62%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 1% · 2018 1% · 2019 1% · 2020 5% · 2021 1% · 2022 1% · 2023 1% · 2024 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
