How to Find a CHS-Affiliated Hospital or Care Location Near You on chs.net

Updated

Go to chs.net and use the Our Locations section to view the map of CHS-affiliated care sites. This is the fastest path if you already know you want a CHS facility and just need to confirm whether one is near you. CHS-affiliated systems operate in 32 distinct markets across 12 states, so the map is the starting point for narrowing down by geography.

What you can find through chs.net

Community Health Systems describes itself as one of the nation's leading healthcare providers. Its affiliated delivery systems include several types of care sites, not just hospitals:

  • 59 affiliated hospitals with more than 8,000 beds
  • Approximately 800 other sites of care
  • Physician practices
  • Urgent care centers
  • Freestanding emergency departments
  • Imaging centers
  • Cancer centers
  • Ambulatory surgery centers

That range matters when you search. If you need a routine visit, a physician practice or urgent care center may be the right match. For imaging, cancer care, or outpatient procedures, look for the corresponding site type.

Step-by-step: locating a facility

  1. Open chs.net in your browser.
  2. Find the Our Locations entry in the site navigation.
  3. Select View The Map to open the location map.
  4. Use the map to check whether your state or metro area falls within one of the 32 markets CHS serves.
  5. Once you identify a nearby affiliated system or facility, open that facility's own page for details.

The expected result is confirmation of whether a CHS-affiliated site exists in your area, plus a link to the specific facility.

What to verify on the individual facility page

The chs.net overview confirms locations and site types, but it does not list services, hours, or phone numbers for each site. Those details live on the affiliated facility's own page. Before you travel or call, confirm:

  • Specific services offered — not every site provides every service type listed above.
  • Operating hours — urgent care and freestanding emergency departments often differ from standard clinic hours.
  • Contact information — use the facility's own phone number, not a general corporate line.
  • Acceptance and referral requirements — check with the facility directly if you need a referral or have coverage questions.

Common sticking points

  • The map shows systems, not every individual address. A market may be served by a system that includes multiple sites; you may need to drill into the system to find the closest one.
  • "Affiliated" does not mean "owned and operated identically." CHS-affiliated healthcare systems are described as cornerstones of their communities, and each plays its own role locally. Local pages are the authoritative source for local details.
  • Corporate pages are not for appointments. chs.net covers company information, investor relations, careers, and community impact. Scheduling and patient questions go through the individual facility.

If you are also exploring careers or company information

The same site hosts Physician and Advanced Practitioner Opportunities, general Job Opportunities, Investor Relations, and Press Room & Media Releases. These are separate from patient-facing location search, so use the navigation that matches your goal rather than starting from the map.
