Quick! Name all the components of Johns Hopkins Medicine. Having trouble? You’re
not alone. This $2.7 billion enterprise is one complex organization;
sorting it all out really is rocket science. Help, at last, is
on the way in the form of a 38-page booklet called Facts &
Figures, published annually and fresh off the press. We weeded
out the essentials, acronyms and all:
Fact: Johns Hopkins Medicine unites the faculty
physicians and scientists of the University’s School of
Medicine (SOM) with the organizations, health professionals and
facilities of the Johns Hopkins Health System (JHHS).
Fact: In addition to the SOM, some components
of Johns Hopkins Medicine are:
• The Johns Hopkins Hospital (JHH)
• Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center (JHBMC)
• Howard County General Hospital (HCGH)
• Johns Hopkins Health System Corporation (JHHSC)
• Johns Hopkins Community Physicians (JHCP)
• Johns Hopkins HealthCare (JHHC)
• Johns Hopkins Home Care Group (JHHCG)
• Johns Hopkins ventures
Fact: JHM’s components directly employ
more than 24,500 individuals. If counted together, this would
be more than any other private employer in Maryland.

Hoop Scoop
On March 26, the Department of Surgery and friends hit the hardwood
at Villa Julie College to benefit the children of the Police Athletic
League. Before a crowd of more than 400, the surgeons, organized by
Charlie Yeo, took on the Harlem Ambassadors, a spinoff of the Harlem
Globetrotters, in a game that was three parts b-ball to one part comic
routine. “We lost, but we didn’t embarrass ourselves too
much,” says co-captain Eddie Cornwell, who broke his pinky in
the fray but claims it hasn’t affected his OR performance. “You
learn to do it with four fingers. I broke the other one last year playing
basketball. It’s an addiction—what can I tell you?”
On the Record
Since April 1, calls to the Hopkins Access Line (HAL), the 24/7 consultation
and referral service that enables referring physicians to reach Hopkins
doctors expeditiously, have been recorded in order to provide better
documentation of conversations. Info: Janet Hicks, 410-614-2184.
