  • Cleveland Clinic Main Campus
    2013 Community Health Needs Assessment – Cleveland Clinic Main Campus Founded in 1921, Cleveland Clinic is an academic medical center offering patient care services supported by research and education in a nonprofit group practice setting. More than 3,000 Cleveland Clinic staff physicians and scientists in 120 medical specialties care for more than 5 million patients across the system. Patients come to Cleveland Clinic locally, from all 50 states and from more than 132 nations around the world. Cleveland Clinic’s main campus, located in midtown Cleveland, includes a hospital with 1,288 staffed beds; an outpatient clinic; a medical school; a research institute; 26 specialty institutes; and supporting labs and facilities in 46 buildings on 167 acres. Cleveland Clinic patients represent the highest CMS case-mix index in the nation. Comprehensive services include heart care, digestive disease, nephrology and urology, cancer, neurology, diabetes and endocrinology, otolaryngology (ENT), rheumatology, gynecology, orthopaedics and pulmonology. Cleveland Clinic’s health system in Northeast Ohio consists of an academic medical center, two children’s hospitals and eight community hospitals. Each hospital is dedicated to the communi- ties it serves. We verify the health needs of our communities by performing periodic community health needs assessments (CHNAs). These formal assessments are analyzed using widely accepted criteria to determine and measure the health needs of a specific community. In accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 501(r)(3), each hospital has conducted its own community health needs assessment. Upon review of all of the community health needs assessments for all of our Northeast Ohio facilities, Cleveland Clinic has identified five community health needs that are present in the ma- jority of hospital communities we serve.
