Ochsner Medical Center in Jefferson, Louisiana, which houses the administrative headquarters of Ochsner Health System

Ochsner Health System is a not-for-profit health system based in the New Orleans metropolitan area of southeast Louisiana, United States.[5] As of 2021 it is the largest non-profit, academic healthcare system operating in Louisiana, with 40 medical facilities across the state.[1][6][7] Its flagship hospital, Ochsner Medical Center, has been ranked the number one hospital in Louisiana for the past decade.[8][9][10] It also has other clinics and medical centers in Greater New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Shreveport, Monroe, Lafayette, and other locations across Louisiana and Mississippi.[11]

History

Ochsner was founded by Dr. Alton Ochsner.[12]

Adeptus Health reached an agreement with the Ochsner Health System to build and operate emergency rooms in Louisiana under the Ochsner name in September 2016.[13]

During the COVID-19 pandemic in Louisiana, the Ochsner Health System was strained by surges in patient volume. In part, efforts to provide healthcare were complicated by resistance to vaccination among healthcare workers, and the effects of Hurricane Ida.[14][15][16][17] In 2021 Oschner stated that employees with spouses who did not take the COVID-19 vaccine will pay more for health insurance.[6]

Ochsner reported a drop of $74M in operating income in 2021, attributed to the effects of Hurricane Ida and the COVID-19 pandemic.[4]

In June 2021, a significant Gulf Coast expansion was announced.[7] Ochsner took over Rush Health System in Mississippi and Alabama.
