CHP designs, manages, and consults neighborhood hospitals — delivering high clinical quality, exceptional patient satisfaction, and improved access to emergency and inpatient care.
CHP designs, manages, and consults neighborhood hospitals across the United States, delivering high clinical quality, exceptional patient satisfaction, and improved access to Emergency and Inpatient services — all while driving meaningful downstream referral revenue for our health system partners.
We initiate this process with business planning, site selection, demand forecasting, collections/acuity analysis, and board approval from our System partner. This is followed by re-zoning and permitting of each site, as well as ongoing partnership and day-to-day management of each Neighborhood Hospital facility.
CHP's Neighborhood Hospitals deliver 24/7 emergency and short-stay inpatient care in right-sized facilities that integrate seamlessly with partner EHR systems. Each facility provides fast access, lean operations, and a superior patient experience.
Board-certified emergency physicians, trauma-capable resuscitation bays, and sub-15-minute door-to-provider times. True hospital-level emergency care.
Private inpatient rooms staffed by hospitalists around the clock. We accept Medicare, Medicaid, and most commercial insurance plans.
Full STAT laboratory with rapid turnaround to accelerate diagnosis and treatment decisions.
Comprehensive, high-tech radiology services: X-Ray, Ultrasound, CT, MRI close to home.
On-site pharmacy services providing immediate medication dispensing, prescription management, and clinical pharmacist support for inpatient and emergency patients.
Nearby medical office space supporting outpatient physician services, specialist consultations, and follow-up care — all integrated with the neighborhood hospital campus.
Large health systems face rising costs, shrinking margins, and difficulty reaching suburban and rural markets where new access points are most needed. Traditional hospitals are slow and costly to build — often failing to meet the rapid pace of community demand.
