Jackson Madison County General Hospital is the largest teritary care facility in West Tennessee outside of Memphis and Nashville. We have a large coverage area that includes 19 counties. The facility is undergoing a large expansion and are in the process of building a 9 story patient bed tower. We are also gearing up to implement a hospital wide EMR.

This information is also available in a physician's home through an internet connection.
