UM Charles Regional Medical Center Community Benefit
What is a Community Benefit?
Community benefit includes activities that are intended to address community needs and priorities primarily through disease prevention and improvement of health status, including:
- Health services provided to vulnerable or underserved populations
- Financial or in-kind support of public health programs
- Donations of funds, property or other resources that contribute to a community priority
- Health care cost containment activities
- Health education, screening and prevention services

These reports summarize the broad range of health and support activities we offer to meet the needs of the community.

With a mission to enhance the health and wellness of our patients and communities, providing state-of-the-art critical care and community leadership with compassion, dignity, and respect, UM CRMC touches thousands of lives in Southern Maryland each year.
