Georgia's healthcare system is anchored by Atlanta, one of the Southeast's most important medical hubs. Emory Healthcare — affiliated with Emory University School of Medicine — is the state's largest health system and includes Emory University Hospital, one of the nation's leading academic medical centers. Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta is the largest public hospital in the Southeast and a Level I Trauma Center serving a high volume of uninsured and underinsured patients. Other major systems include Piedmont Healthcare, WellStar Health System, and Northside Hospital.
Georgia faces significant rural healthcare challenges, with dozens of counties classified as Health Professional Shortage Areas. The state has experienced rural hospital closures in recent years, leaving some communities without local inpatient care. The Georgia Department of Community Health (DCH) (dch.georgia.gov) oversees Medicaid (called Georgia Medicaid), the State Health Benefit Plan, and healthcare facility regulation.
Georgia has not fully expanded Medicaid, though the state implemented a limited "Georgia Pathways" expansion in 2023 that requires work or community engagement as a condition of coverage for certain adults. The Georgia Composite Medical Board (gcmb.georgia.gov) licenses physicians and provides online verification.
