Methodist Healthcare System

Methodist Healthcare is the area's largest and most preferred healthcare system. Our mission is "Serving humanity to honor God by providing exceptional and cost-effective health care accessible to all."​ Methodist Healthcare was selected to receive the Texas Award for Performance Excellence (TAPE) from the Quality Texas Foundation, representing the highest level of quality an organization can achieve in the state of Texas. Methodist Healthcare is the first and only health care system in South Texas and the third organization in San Antonio to receive the TAPE award since the inception of the award in 1994. Led by a culture of Methodist Excellence, the nearly 9,000 staff and volunteers combined with a medical staff of over 2,500, dedicate themselves to continuous quality improvement by committing to live by the mission, vision and values of Methodist Excellence. The journey to excellence has led Methodist Healthcare to achieve many awards for clinical excellence and quality outcomes, as well innovation and people's choice awards. Receiving the Texas Award for Performance Excellence is a testament to Methodist Healthcare being selected as the most preferred and trusted health care provider each and every year. Methodist Healthcare is part of HCA Healthcare. HCA Healthcare has been continually named a World's Most Ethical Company by Ethisphere since 2010.
