Healing Communities: More Than Healthcare Providers, Hospitals Are Economic Engines

Posted in:

[The following is a paid advertisement.]

Illinois hospitals are driving local economies across the state through a combined $117.7 billion in economic activity every year. Such significant contributions to the state and local economies come from providing good-paying jobs and spending on supplies, services, and capital.

While hospitals are best known for their lifesaving care—and always being there when you need them—their role stretches farther. They’re also working hard to address community health needs, provide accessible care and train future clinicians.

As economic anchors in their community, Illinois hospitals create 445,000 direct and indirect jobs, and they support working families through over $50 billion in direct and indirect salaries annually. What’s more:

Illinois hospitals spend nearly $62 billion to have at the ready the medical equipment and supplies needed to care for patients in any circumstance. In addition, the hospital community spends over $5.5 billion on capital projects yearly that benefit patients and employ local businesses. Learn more about how Illinois hospitals are healing communities.
