Lafayette General Medical Center
Lafayette General Medical Center provides families the most comprehensive medical services at every level of care, from severe emergency trauma to the common cold. Lafayette General evolved from Lafayette Sanitarium, a six-bed facility that opened in 1911, and has been a leader in health care throughout its existence. Over the years, LGMC has expanded its services and facilities to meet the community’s growing needs.
Lafayette General Medical Center is recognized by federal and state tax laws as a 501c(3) not-for-profit corporation. Although the hospital generates money by billing for its health care services, it does not pay out any revenue to shareholders, as for-profits do. Any net revenue is reinvested into the organization for new equipment, facilities,
and technology to better care for the people they serve. As the regions only community-owned and managed hospital, all
decisions are made locally by an experienced administrative team and a volunteer Membership Corporation and Board of Trustees.
