AdventHealth

AdventHealth is a healthcare organization headquartered in the United States that delivers a broad spectrum of medical services to communities across multiple states. It operates hospitals, outpatient clinics, urgent care centers, and physician practices that provide primary, specialty, and emergency care. The organization also offers wellness programs, diagnostic imaging, rehabilitation services, and telehealth options to support patient access. AdventHealth serves patients of all ages, addressing both acute and chronic health needs through integrated care models. Its service delivery emphasizes coordination between inpatient and outpatient settings to improve continuity of care. The organization reaches diverse populations, including urban and suburban communities, and collaborates with local providers to expand health resources.

AdventHealth distinguishes itself as a faith‑based, nonprofit health system affiliated with the Seventh‑day Adventist Church, which informs its mission of whole‑person care that addresses physical, mental, and spiritual well‑being. This affiliation guides its commitment to community benefit, charity care, and health education initiatives. Structurally, AdventHealth operates under the parent entity Adventist Health System, a nonprofit organization that oversees a network of affiliated hospitals and care sites. The organization has experienced notable cybersecurity incidents, including a 2020 Blackbaud ransomware attack that prompted donor notifications from the AdventHealth Foundation and a 2017 malware infection at its Pulmonary & Sleep Medicine center that exposed protected health information of approximately 42,000 patients and remained undetected for over 16 months. These events have led to enhanced security measures, audits, and patient outreach efforts such as credit monitoring and identity‑theft protection services.
