AdventHealth Dade City is a non-profit hospital in Dade City, Florida. It was formerly owned by health care provider Community Health Systems and is now owned by AdventHealth.

History[edit]

In 1973, Community General Hospital was founded.[3] On October 1, 1973, Community General Hospital opened with 65 hospital beds.[4] In 1982, Community General Hospital was renamed Humana Hospital-Pasco.[5]

On March 1, 1993, Humana Hospital-Pasco had its name changed to Dade City Hospital, when Humana spun off its hospitals creating the hospital network Galen Health Care.[6][7] On September 1, 1993, Columbia Hospital Corporation bought Galen Health Care for $3.5 billion. After the merger the hospital network changed its name to Columbia Healthcare Corporation.[7][8] On February 11, 1994, the Federal Trade Commission and shareholders approved a $5.7 billion merger of Columbia Healthcare Corporation and Hospital Corporation of America. Creating the hospital network Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation.[9][10] In 1997, the hospital was renamed Columbia Dade City Hospital and then just Dade City Hospital.[11] And in 1998, it was changed to Pasco Community Hospital.[12]

On September 1, 2000, HCA Healthcare sold Pasco Community Hospital to Health Management Associates for $17 million, who then renamed it to Pasco Regional Medical Center.[3][11]

In 2011, Pasco Regional Medical Center started an emergency room expansion project. Phase one included new exam rooms, imaging suite, decontamination zone, nurses station, triage station, EMS lounge, registration/patient welcome area, and patient/guest lounge. Also during phase one ambulance bays were redesigned. After the emergency department moved into the new emergency room, the old emergency room was renovated. Phase two included new consultation suites, staff lounge, another nurses station and a storage area.[13] In early January 2012, construction workers finished expansion of the emergency room. The emergency room was almost tripled in size to 12,700 square feet and the number of exam rooms increased from 9 to 17.[14]

On July 5, 2013, Pasco Regional Medical Center was rebranded by Health Management Associates to Bayfront Health Dade City.[15] On July 30, 2013, it was announced that Community Health Systems would purchase Health Management Associates for $7.6 billion.[5][16] On January 24, 2014, the Federal Trade Commission approved the merger of Community Health Systems and Health Management Associates.[17]

On December 5, 2017, Adventist Health System bought Bayfront Health Dade City from Community Health Systems.[18][19][20] On April 1, 2018, Florida Hospital a subsidiary of Adventist Health System began to operate the hospital and it was renamed to Florida Hospital Dade City. [21][22] On January 2, 2019, Florida Hospital Dade City changed its name to AdventHealth Dade City.[23][24]

In 2019, construction workers began a four phases renovation project on the hospital, the total cost of the renovations was $22.2 million. New diagnostic equipment were purchased for AdventHealth Dade City and its MRI equipment was moved indoors. Two of the units that were not being used were converted into a transitional care unit and surgical unit. The pre-op unit moved into new individual rooms. AdventHealth Dade City constructed a new lobby and chapel. Its cafeteria was renovated and made larger.[25][26] The renovations came to an end in late 2022.[27]

On January 1, 2021, the United States government required all hospitals to have their chargemaster on its website.[28] In a survey done in 2022, the majority of hospitals in Florida including AdventHealth Dade City had failed to comply with the new law.[28][29] It was not until February 10, 2023, that the hospital was in full compliance with the law.[30]
