BY DELIVERING SURGICAL SERVICES TO ALL WHO SEEK CARE REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY AND BY HAVING INPATIENT SERVICES IN THREE DISTINCT LOCATIONS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY, WAKEMED HAS IMPROVED ACCESS TO THESE NEEDED SERVICES. WAKEMED'S WIDE RANGE OF SURGICAL SPECIALTIES INCLUDE BARIATRIC, CARDIOVASCULAR AND THORACIC, ENT, HEAD AND NECK, ADULT AND PEDIATRIC GASTROINTESTINAL, GENERAL, NEUROSURGERY, OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY, ORTHOPEDICS, PEDIATRIC, UROLOGY, AND VASCULAR. AS WAKE COUNTY'S ONLY STATE DESIGNATED LEVEL 1 TRAUMA CENTER, WAKEMED PROVIDES COMPREHENSIVE TRAUMA SURGERY FOR GENERAL, ORTHOPEDIC, NEUROSURGERY, AND VASCULAR TRAUMA PATIENTS. BECAUSE ACCESS TO SPECIALTY CARE CONTINUES TO BE A KEY HEALTH CONCERN FACING OUR COMMUNITY, WAKEMED HAS EXPANDED ITS NETWORK OF SPECIALISTS THROUGH WAKEMED PHYSICIANS WHO PROVIDE SUBSPECIALTY CARE TO THE UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED IN OUR COMMUNITY. OUR STAFF WORKS WITH THE PATIENT TO DISCOUNT THEIR FEES BASED ON INDIVIDUAL INCOME AND NEED. MANY PHYSICIANS ON THE MEDICAL STAFF CONTINUE THIS PRACTICE OF PROVIDING QUALITY CARE TO PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY. IN FISCAL YEAR 2025, OUR SURGICAL PATIENTS INCLUDED 31.4% WHO WERE INSURED UNDER MEDICARE, 14.6% WHO WERE INSURED UNDER MEDICAID, AND 3.3% WHO WERE UNINSURED (OR "SELF-PAY OR CHARITY CARE").

THUS, THE WAKEMED HEART CENTER PROVIDES A COMPREHENSIVE CONTINUUM OF CARE FOR THE CARDIAC PATIENT FROM OUTREACH EDUCATION AND PREVENTION TO DIAGNOSIS, INTERVENTION, SURGERY, CARDIAC REHABILITATION AND ONGOING DISEASE MANAGEMENT FOR HEART FAILURE DIABETES. FREE EDUCATION PROGRAMS ARE OFFERED REGULARLY FOR OUR PATIENTS, THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS AND THE COMMUNITY TO COMPLEMENT OUR COMPREHENSIVE CARE SERVICES.

ADDITIONALLY, WAKEMED'S HEART CENTER PROVIDES FREE HEALTH SCREENINGS THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY INCLUDING CHOLESTEROL SCREENINGS, BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKS, VASCULAR SCREENINGS, AND STROKE ASSESSMENTS.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
