About Baptist Health Medical Group
Baptist Health Medical Group brings together all of Baptist Health’s employed providers into one comprehensive, multispecialty network serving residents of Kentucky, Indiana and neighboring states. Backed by the Baptist Health system of hospitals and led by experienced physicians who are distinguished in their fields, the group encompasses nearly 1,500 providers, including 750 physicians and more than 700 advanced practice clinicians. These professionals include primary care providers, as well as highly trained surgeons and specialists offering advanced treatments, technologies and care.
While many of the Medical Group’s administrative functions are centralized, Baptist Health recognizes that healthcare is delivered on a very personal level. Therefore, the governing structure includes local leadership councils and operations staff in each of the system’s three regions, Kentuckiana, East and West, to address each community’s unique needs. These councils work together to ensure that patients visiting a Baptist Health Medical Group provider can expect the same quality care at each of our practices and in each of our hospitals – care that is appropriate, timely and centered on our valued patients.
Baptist Health is the largest, not-for-profit, faith-based health system in Kentucky, and we have recently expanded our reach to include a significant presence in southern Indiana. With approximately 92,000 inpatient discharges across the state each year, the Baptist Health family includes nine acute-care hospitals, representing 2,719 licensed beds.
In addition to our acute-care hospitals, Baptist Health owns and operates more than 300 outpatient facilities throughout our service areas, including outpatient diagnostic centers, and Urgent Care centers — all of which serve 230,000 visitors each year. We also provide Home Care services in nearly 40 counties in Kentucky, six in Illinois, and six in southern Indiana. Formed in 2014, Baptist Health Medical Group includes nearly 1,000 employed physicians and advanced practice clinicians.
