About OhioHealth
OhioHealth is a nonprofit, faith-based health system serving Central Ohio with 12 hospitals and more than
200 physician offices, outpatient facilities, and urgent care locations. Flagship hospitals include OhioHealth
Riverside Methodist Hospital (the system’s largest and Central Ohio’s busiest), OhioHealth Grant
Medical Center (a Level I trauma center in downtown Columbus), OhioHealth Doctors Hospital, OhioHealth Dublin
Methodist Hospital, and OhioHealth Grady Memorial Hospital in Delaware, Ohio.
OhioHealth vs. Ohio State Wexner Medical Center
Columbus has three major health systems competing for patients: OhioHealth, Ohio State University Wexner
Medical Center, and Mount Carmel Health (Trinity Health). Most broad PPO plans in Central Ohio include all
three systems. HMO and narrow-network products may anchor to one system. If you have specialists at multiple
systems, a PPO is the safest option.
Which Carriers Include OhioHealth?
OhioHealth participates in most major commercial carrier networks in Ohio, including Medical Mutual of Ohio,
Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Ambetter, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, and Humana. As with all systems,
participation is plan-specific — not every product from every carrier includes every OhioHealth facility.
OhioHealth Urgent Care Locations
OhioHealth operates a network of urgent care locations across Central Ohio under the OhioHealth Urgent Care
brand. These are typically in-network on plans that include OhioHealth, though urgent care cost-sharing
differs from hospital cost-sharing on most plans.
