We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Because we believe that life is sacred, an inherent gift from a loving Creator, and that all children are of equal worth, we dedicate ourselves to maximizing the potential of every child by providing excellent pediatric medical and rehabilitative services in a compassionate environment consistent with the Christian principles on which we were founded.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Innovative leader in the field of pediatric rehabilitation and 24-hour complex care.

  • The Children's Center, Inc. d/b/a Bethany Children's Health Center (Bethany Health Center) is an innovative leader in the field of pediatric rehabilitation and 24-hour complex care. The private, nonprofit hospital, located in Bethany, Oklahoma, offers inpatient and outpatient services for children. The Complex Care Unit provides specialized health care to children with complex medical needs. The patients served in this unit often present with chronic health conditions and require ongoing medical care. The Transitional Care Unit at Bethany Children's Health Center serves children who would benefit from an individualized plan of care for their unique medical and therapy needs. (continued on Schedule O)Each patient in the Transitional Care Program is evaluated by the interdisciplinary team and receives a comprehensive plan to address their specific functional and medical goals. Bethany Health Center offers 24-hour medical care, comprehensive rehabilitative therapies including, but not limited to, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, and can include other specialized services as directed by physicians. Respiratory care, nutritional support, complex respiratory care, complex post-operative care, palliative care support, and special education are offered to meet the medical, nursing and therapy needs of a variety of patients requiring post-acute, inpatient care before the transition home. Bethany Health Center is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) and the Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC).Bethany Children's has firsthand experience with the growing need for outpatient services. In 2017, Bethany Children's outpatient services relocated to the newly constructed tower on campus, enabling significant growth through additional providers and expanded services. In 2024, Bethany Children's outpatient therapy department recorded 13,720 total patient visits, up from 11,466 in 2023, a growth of approximately 20%. The outpatient medical clinic visits increased by 22.5% from 9,130 in 2023, to 11,184 in 2024, and significant growth is expected in 2025 and 2026 as well. As demand for these services continues to grow, the space currently used by outpatient providers will not be sufficient to deliver the level of care and service to which Bethany Children's is committed. With the new outpatient tower scheduled to be open and fully occupied by early 2027, we anticipate serving significantly more children and families across our region. The Bethany Health Center provides health care services to patients who meet certain criteria under its charity care policy without charge or at amounts less than established rates. Since the Bethany Health Center does not pursue collection of these amounts, they are not reported as patient service revenue.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

Declared as related by

Taxable family

From Schedule R Parts I, III and IV: entities that legally are the filer, and taxable partnerships, corporations and trusts it is related to. These record ownership and control, not shared board members or money.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
