About HHC
As the largest municipal healthcare system in the United States, the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (HHC) provides care for 1.3 million New Yorkers annually. Through its 11 acute care hospital facilities, six Diagnostic and Treatment Centers, four long-term care institutions, and more than 80 neighborhood clinics, HHC provides integrated and comprehensive health services in every community of the city, serving all New Yorkers regardless of their immigration status or their ability to pay.
At a time when New York City’s public healthcare system is nationally recognized for its quality, safety, and efficiency, and at the very moment when it is needed most, HHC finds itself challenged by budget deficits that jeopardize our ability to deliver care. The crisis in healthcare has already led to the closing of several New York City hospitals in recent years, creating an additional burden on HHC facilities. But our hospitals, clinics, and neighborhood facilities are the cornerstone of healthcare for our communities, irreplaceable and indispensable resources for the health of our city.
