# Austin hospital ownership census: appendix

**Research cutoff: October 30, 2026. Geography: Travis, Williamson, Hays, Bastrop and Caldwell counties.**

This is a reconciled roster of **48 records: 42 general/special hospital license-location entries, five private psychiatric entries and Austin State Hospital.** It also identifies **Ascension Seton Bastrop, a known department of another hospital, separately below**. The 47 private records represent **40 distinct state licenses and 37 distinct nonblank Medicare certification numbers (CCNs)**. All 37 CCNs match CMS enrollment records. These are not 48 independent businesses, reporting entities or necessarily physically separate campuses. Texas NeuroRehab has two licenses on one site; several other campuses share a license and CCN.

The state directories are internally dated October 21, 2026; CMS ownership/enrollment files are dated September 29, 2026. A current directory entry establishes inclusion in the state roster, not a separately checked real-time operating license status. Addresses, legal operators, source links, raw classifications and qualifications are retained in the companion CSV/JSON. Ordinary freestanding emergency departments are outside this inpatient-hospital roster; microhospitals on the general-hospital list remain included.

**Source basis for all tables:** [HHSC general/special directory][general], [HHSC private psychiatric directory][psych], [CMS hospital enrollment][enroll] and [CMS hospital owners][owners]. Blank CCN cells mean no CCN in the HHSC row, not a finding that the facility is unregulated. Nonprofit/proprietary labels concern the recorded operating entity; none of these labels by itself proves a property-tax exemption.

## Ascension Seton: 11 roster entries

Ascension is the Catholic nonprofit parent; ASCENSION SETON is the CMS operating entity for ten rows. **Cedar Park is the exception:** its operator is CEDAR PARK HEALTH SYSTEM LLC, still recorded as proprietary by CMS and for-profit by HHSC. CMS reports Ascension Texas at 99% direct and CP Hospital GP LLC at 1%, effective June 30, 2025. Dell/UT names identify donor and academic relationships; they do not establish that UT operates the hospital. Ascension’s stakes in other operators appear in the joint-venture section.

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ascension Seton Cedar Park | Williamson | 008583 | 670043 |
| Ascension Seton Edgar B. Davis | Caldwell | 000597 | 451371 |

| Dell Children’s Medical Center | Travis | 008520 | 453310 |
| Dell Children’s Medical Center North Campus | Williamson | 008520 | 453310 |
| Dell Seton Medical Center at UT | Travis | 000335 | 450124 |
| Ascension Seton Bastrop — department, additional to the 48 records | Bastrop | Former 100497 | Hays department; no independent current CCN assigned here |

**Known department outside the standalone roster:** Ascension Seton Bastrop, 630 SH 71 Service Road, became a department of Ascension Seton Hays on **October 1, 2024**, according to Seton’s FY2025 Schedule H; former license 100497. It is an additional care location, not an extra independent hospital cost report. [Seton filing][seton]

**Identifier change:** Smithville’s current critical-access CCN is 671304. The prior September 2024 enrollment used CCN **450143**; use that historical identifier for its FY2024 cost report. Current CMS records mark the rural-emergency-hospital conversion flag **N**. The two Dell Children’s campuses share one CCN/license. [Historical enrollment][enroll2024]


## St. David’s HealthCare: 8 roster entries

All eight rows resolve to **ST DAVIDS HEALTHCARE PARTNERSHIP LP LLP**, the HCA/foundation partnership. The foundations’ 2024 tax returns disclose **St. David’s Foundation 40.59% and Georgetown Health Foundation 1%**; HCA’s exact current interest is not independently verified and is not inferred by subtraction. These economic shares do not establish governance votes. [St. David’s Foundation filing][sdf] [Georgetown filing][ghf] **Data conflict:** HHSC labels the four license-000035 entries nonprofit, while CMS labels the common operating entity proprietary. Both classifications remain in the dataset. The four license-000035 entries and the two license-008299 entries must each be consolidated when joining Medicare cost reports.

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heart Hospital of Austin | Travis | 000035 | 450431 |
| St. David’s Round Rock Medical Center | Williamson | 000608 | 450718 |

| St. David’s South Austin Medical Center | Travis | 000602 | 450713 |
| St. David’s Surgical Hospital | Williamson | 008299 | 450809 |

## Baylor Scott & White nonprofit hospitals: 7 roster entries

Baylor Scott & White Health is the nonprofit parent. **Round Rock, Lakeway and Cedar Park Emergency Medical Center share SCOTT & WHITE HOSPITAL–ROUND ROCK, one state license and one CCN.** Austin, Buda and Pflugerville share the legal entity BAYLOR SCOTT & WHITE MEDICAL CENTERS–CAPITOL AREA but have distinct CCNs; Taylor is a separate legal entity/CCN. The BSW-branded rehabilitation hospital below is a different, proprietary joint venture.

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| BSW Emergency Medical Center–Cedar Park | Williamson | 008526 | 670034 |
| BSW Medical Center–Austin | Travis | 100506 | 670136 |
| BSW Medical Center–Buda | Hays | 100476 | 670131 |

| BSW Medical Center–Round Rock | Williamson | 008526 | 670034 |
| BSW Medical Center–Taylor | Williamson | 100096 | 451374 |

## BSW / Select Medical rehabilitation joint venture: 1 entry

The proprietary operator is **BIR JV LLP**. CMS reports Baylor University Medical Center’s 51% limited-partnership interest, Select Physical Therapy Texas LP’s 49% direct interest and Select Medical’s operational control. **Select Medical itself came under a WCAS-led private-equity consortium with Robert Ortenzio and Martin Jackson on July 1, 2026.** WCAS says the consortium controls operations and holds a majority of Select’s economic interest. That is upstream of Select’s 49% hospital-JV interest; it does not turn the Baylor partner’s 51% into WCAS ownership. Exact consortium/fund stakes are not disclosed.

|---|---|---|---|
| BSW Institute for Rehabilitation–Lakeway | Travis | 100438 | 673058 |

## Lifepoint / Ascension rehabilitation joint venture: 1 entry

Proprietary **CTRH LLC**: the CMS chain reports Lifepoint interests at 80% and Ascension Seton at 20%. Lifepoint is the operating parent. Its 2018 going-private statement identifies Apollo-affiliated funds and co-investors; that historical financing statement does not establish an exact 2026 beneficial cap table. [Lifepoint merger][lifepoint]

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Central Texas Rehabilitation Hospital | Travis | 100147 | 673027 |

## Acadia / Ascension psychiatric joint venture: 1 entry

Proprietary **AUSTIN BEHAVIORAL HOSPITAL LLC**: CMS reports Acadia Healthcare at **88.2%** and Ascension Seton at **11.8%**, both direct, effective August 18, 2025. The current partner brand is Cross Creek Hospital Together With Ascension Seton. These interests must not be applied retrospectively to 2024 financial reports.

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cross Creek Hospital | Travis | 100290 | 454133 |

## Ascension / SCA Health / physician surgical joint venture: 1 entry

Proprietary **AUSTIN CENTER FOR OUTPATIENT SURGERY LP**. Seton’s FY2025 Schedule H reports **51% organizational interest and 27% physician interest**. CMS independently identifies Ascension and the SCA/Optum/UnitedHealth chain. A CMS SCA 30% indirect entry has an older 2018 association date; it cannot safely be combined with the newer shares to reconstruct today’s cap table. The remaining current stake and exact allocation of management authority are unresolved. [Seton filing][seton]

|---|---|---|---|
| Northwest Hills Surgical Hospital | Travis | 000794 | 450808 |

## PAM Health / Ascension rehabilitation joint ventures: 2 entries

Kyle’s proprietary operator is WARM SPRINGS REHABILITATION HOSPITAL OF KYLE LLC: CMS reports **75% Post Acute Medical at Kyle / 25% Ascension Texas**. Round Rock’s proprietary operator is PAM REHABILITATION HOSPITAL OF ROUND ROCK LLC: **75% PAM Squared at Round Rock / 25% Ascension Seton**. PAM is the operating group. CMS reports Misitano family ownership upstream; conflicting or overlapping records prevent a complete current family cap table. [PAM leadership][pam]

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| PAM Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Kyle | Hays | 100261 | 673057 |
| PAM Rehabilitation Hospital of Round Rock | Williamson | 100451 | 673069 |

## Other nonprofit parents: 2 entries

CHRISTUS SANTA ROSA HEALTH CARE CORPORATION operates San Marcos under CHRISTUS Health. TEXAS CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL operates the North Austin campus under the Texas Children’s nonprofit system. Organization-wide community-benefit totals cannot be assigned wholly to these local campuses.

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Hospital–San Marcos | Hays | 100514 | 450272 |
| Texas Children’s Hospital North Austin Campus | Williamson | 100608 | 453319 |

## ScionHealth / Cornerstone: 1 entry

Proprietary **CHG HOSPITAL AUSTIN LLC**. CMS traces the chain through CHG Hospital Operations, Cornerstone/Kindred and Knight entities. ScionHealth’s own site identifies **Knight Health Holdings LLC** as the holding company. Current ultimate fund/beneficial ownership above that company is unverified here; do not treat ScionHealth and Lifepoint as interchangeable present-day parents. [ScionHealth][scion]

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cornerstone Specialty Hospitals Round Rock | Williamson | 100293 | 452034 |

## Encompass Health: 2 entries

The proprietary hospital LLCs sit under **Encompass Health Corporation**. CMS public institutional-investor entries are upstream claims in the public-company chain, not additional direct hospital partnership stakes.

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Austin | Travis | 100143 | 673054 |
| Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Round Rock | Williamson | 008661 | 673032 |

## PAM Health, outside the Ascension joint ventures: 1 entry

Proprietary **POST ACUTE MEDICAL AT LULING LLC**, through PAM Cubed Specialty Hospitals LLC/PAM Cubed LLC. CMS identifies Brittany Misitano as an indirect owner but leaves the percentage blank. A Wells Fargo security interest is a lender claim, not equity ownership. Exact ultimate PAM stakes remain unresolved.

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| PAM Specialty Hospital of Luling | Caldwell | 008482 | 452062 |

## Universal Health Services: 3 roster entries

UHS is the corporate parent. Austin Oaks operates through **TEXAS OAKS PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL LP**; the medical/rehabilitation NeuroRehab enrollment is **NEURO INSTITUTE OF AUSTIN LP**. The NeuroRehab medical and psychiatric records concern different licensed buildings at the same Dittmar Road site. The psychiatric license-specific legal entity is not independently established by the CMS match; the dataset marks the campus inference explicitly.

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Texas NeuroRehab Center–medical/rehabilitation, building 9 | Travis | 000622 | 452038 |
| Austin Oaks Hospital | Travis | 100195 | 454121 |
| Texas NeuroRehab Center–psychiatric, building 15 | Travis | 000739 | — |

## Signature Healthcare Services: 1 entry

Proprietary **GEORGETOWN BEHAVIORAL HEALTH INSTITUTE LLC**. CMS reports Signature Healthcare Services LLC as 100% direct owner and **Soon Kim as a 5%-or-greater indirect owner**, with the percentage blank. Signature’s own site identifies Soon K. Kim as chairman; that management title adds no percentage information. Exact ultimate individual stakes remain unverified. [Signature][signature]

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Georgetown Behavioral Health Institute | Williamson | 100257 | 454129 |

## Lifepoint / Springstone: 1 entry

Proprietary **ROCK SPRINGS LLC**. CMS reports Springstone Health Opco LLC directly and Lifepoint Behavioral Health/Health indirectly, with the parent association dated March 1, 2024. Apollo-affiliated investment is documented historically by Lifepoint’s 2018 announcement; the exact current fund interests are unresolved. [Lifepoint merger][lifepoint]

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rock Springs | Williamson | 100242 | 454127 |

## Westlake / Attila: 1 entry

Proprietary **WESTLAKE SURGICAL LP**. CMS reports Attila LP Investor LLC at 79% direct and Attila GP Investor LLC at 10.8% direct, plus physician limited partners. It identifies Michael Welch at 74% indirect (association 2018) and Katherine Welch at 9.5% indirect (2021), plus family trusts. These nested, differently dated claims do not constitute a fully reconciled current cap table; the complete beneficial allocation is unresolved.

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Hospital at Westlake Medical Center | Travis | 008228 | 670006 |

## Family Hospital Systems: 2 entries

The official Family Hospital Systems location pages identify both campuses. Brushy Creek’s CMS operator is **BRUSHY CREEK FAMILY HOSPITAL LLC**, with Henry Higgins reported in direct and partnership ownership roles; those percentages are not safely additive. HHSC lists **LAKE TRAVIS ER LLC**, but its licensee ownership filing and individual ultimate stakes were not obtained. Both appear on the general-hospital roster with four licensed medical/surgical beds; the ER branding is not grounds to exclude them. [Brushy Creek][brushy] [Lake Travis][laketravis]

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brushy Creek Family Hospital | Williamson | 100495 | 670326 |
| Lake Travis ER / Family Hospital at Lake Travis | Travis | 100419 | — |

## Kyle ER & Hospital: 1 entry

HHSC identifies physician ownership; the official site describes founding physicians. **The legal licensee’s complete ownership and ultimate parent remain unverified.** No CCN is supplied in the state roster. Leadership names and an outside billing vendor do not prove equity ownership. This is a licensed four-bed general hospital, distinct from an ordinary freestanding emergency department. [Kyle hospital][kyle]

| Hospital / roster entry | County | HHSC license | Medicare CCN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kyle ER & Hospital | Hays | 100458 | — |

## State of Texas: 1 entry

**Texas HHSC operates this public psychiatric hospital.** It is added separately because the private-hospital directories do not supply the complete public state-hospital universe. Central Health is a county hospital district purchaser/funder and is not the owner of Austin State Hospital. [HHSC Austin State Hospital][state]

## Scope and ownership claims that need restraint

1. **Roster completeness is not campus completeness.** All rows in the two selected HHSC private-hospital directories for the five counties are accounted for, with the state hospital added. A complete service-site inventory would additionally require all hospital departments and satellite locations; Bastrop is one documented extra. St. David’s Children’s Hospital/Women’s Center brands are within North Austin Medical Center and are not extra independent roster entries.
2. **A closed license is not necessarily a closed care site.** Bastrop became a department. Conversely, Ascension Seton Shoal Creek provided no services after May 31, 2025, according to Seton’s FY2025 filing, and is excluded from the current roster. [Seton filing][seton]
3. **Parentage, entity classification, property title and exemption are separate fields.** Six proprietary hospital operators have documented Ascension stakes: Cedar Park, Central Texas Rehabilitation, Cross Creek, Northwest Hills Surgical, PAM Kyle and PAM Round Rock. The BSW/Select rehabilitation JV is also proprietary. This does not establish which individual parcels are taxed or exempt.
4. **CMS owners are not a ready-made cap table.** The file includes direct owners, indirect owners, general partners, officers, managers and secured creditors. Some percentages occur on non-equity roles; some historical association records overlap. No ownership tree should add all rows or interpret a lender’s security interest as equity.
5. **Financial joins must use both entity and date.** One CCN can cover multiple campuses; one tax return can cover multiple CCNs. Smithville changed identifiers. Cedar Park’s 2025 acquisition, Cross Creek’s 2025 partnership and Select’s 2026 privatization must not silently rewrite 2024 financial ownership.

**Unresolved ownership cases:** the current exact Lifepoint/Apollo fund interests; Scion/Knight’s ultimate funds; PAM’s complete Misitano/fund cap table; Signature’s exact Kim/family stakes; WCAS/Ortenzio/Jackson’s exact Select consortium percentages; Northwest Hills’ remaining current minority interests and managerial allocation; complete Attila/Welch/physician stakes; Family Hospital Systems’ ultimate interests; Kyle ER’s legal owner/ultimate parent; and the separate NeuroRehab psychiatric licensee. Each is marked in the machine-readable census rather than filled with an assumed parent.

**County reconciliation:** Travis 24 + Williamson 16 + Hays 5 + Caldwell 2 + Bastrop 1 = **48 roster/state records**. Add Bastrop’s documented department as a separate care-location line, not as another independent license or CCN.
