Virginia Commonwealth University Health System, MCV Hospitals and Physicians
Description edit
The VCUHS is the only academic medical center in central Virginia. As the regional teaching institution, we offer access to some of the most advanced state-of-the-art treatments and technologies available. Our medical staff includes internationally recognized physicians, dozens of whom have been recognized among the best doctors in the country. Many VCUHS physicians also have been ranked among the top doctors in Richmond in specialties ranging from allergies to vascular surgery. And for several years running, we've been selected by many of the rating organizations including National Research Corporation's Consumer Choice, Solucient “Top 100” Hospitals, US News and World Report, and as a technology leader by being recognized as one of the “Most Wired” healthcare institutions.
Since 1838, the Medical College of Virginia Hospitals (MCVH) has been on the forefront of advances in healthcare, providing patients with some of the most progressive treatment and technology available. The July 2000 transition to the Virginia Commonwealth University Health System (VCUHS) was another innovation. The change allows the VCU Health System to continue providing the state-of-the-art care on which our patients have depended for more than 160 years.
MCV Hospitals is the teaching hospital component of the VCU Health System, which also includes a number of outpatient clinics and MCV Physicians, a 600-physician, faculty group practice. The VCUHS, as the clinical delivery component of the VCU Medical Center, is the only academic medical center in Central Virginia and is a regional referral center for the state. With 779 licensed beds, MCVH has approximately a 20% share of the Richmond inpatient market. The VCUHS records 30,000 admissions and more than 500,000 outpatient visits each year. Over 80,000 patients are treated annually in the hospital’s emergency department, which is the region's only Level I Trauma Center.
