Boston Medical Center:
Boston Medical Center formed in July 1996 when three of Bostons leading hospitals Boston City Hospital, Boston University Medical Center Hospital and the Boston Rehabilitation Hospital combined in the countrys first merger of two city hospitals with a private academic medical center. In partnership with Boston University Schools of Medicine and Public Health, BMC has emerged as not only a premier academic medical center, but also the largest safety net hospital in New England. BMC has enthusiastically embraced its role to serve those communities most in need. Its many social services and innovative outreach programs are emblematic of its mission to serve all patients, regardless of status or ability to pay. Last year, BMC delivered over $306 million of free care to a patient population. More than 50% of BMCs patients have an annual income at or below $20,420. Approximately 30% of all our patients do not speak English; and English is not the first language for 60% of our uninsured patients. BMCs mission is to provide exceptional care, without exception to everyone, regardless of their ability to pay.
