In the Community

Indiana University Health is committed to the well-being of the communities we serve. Reinvesting in the health and development of our communities is central to who we are as the state's most comprehensive healthcare system.

Our support is not restricted to the care provided within our hospital walls, but rather extends to community neighborhoods across Indiana, reaching more than 550,000 people each year. In 2010, we invested nearly $614 million dollars in IU Health communities across the state. To put that in perspective, it is enough money to give every Hoosier over $100.
