HISTORY

 
 
Home > Who We Are > History

Methodist Healthcare Ministries was formed in 1995 out of the joint venture partnership between Southwest Texas Methodist Hospital and Columbia/HCA, the world’s largest healthcare organization. It was formed to serve individuals and families within the 72-county service area of the Southwest Conference of the United Methodist Church who do not have access to health care services nor medical insurance. At the same time it was formed, Methodist Healthcare System was also created and today, has more than 25 facilities serving the people of Bexar County and surrounding areas.

In 1995, the year Methodist Healthcare Ministries of South Texas was created as a faith-based organization, it made 1,100 contacts with individuals in need of access to health and human services. In its second year of existence, it became the largest private funding source for community healthcare in San Antonio and South Texas. At the end of its first decade, in 2005, that number was more than 300,000 contacts. The total in its first ten years: more than $110 million invested in services and programs and more than 1.5 million individual contacts made.
