University Health Truman Medical Center

University Health Truman Medical Center (UHTMC) is an academic medical center providing quality healthcare to the Kansas City community and beyond, for those with the very best insurance and those with no insurance at all. It is the only safety net hospital to serve the medically indigent in the Kansas City metro area.

Along with University Health Lakewood Medical Center (UHLMC), UHTMC's physicians, in affiliation with the University of Missouri-Kansas City, teach the doctors of the future. The hospital is known for having the brightest minds and biggest hearts in Kansas City. It’s where academic experts and compassionate care come together.

UHTMC also has the only American College of Surgeons verified Level 1 Trauma Center in Kansas City, Mo. Those who have a serious fall or are involved in a car accident say “take me to Truman for trauma” to get the best possible care.
