Providence Health & Services Oregon: $5.5B Revenue, $4.2B Program Expenses

Providence Health & Services Oregon earns an A on the nonprofit efficiency rubric — a top-tier rating that reflects strong program-spending ratios, reasonable executive compensation, and stable financial reserves. The composite score of 82/100 places it in the upper bracket of U.S. tax-exempt organizations.

Providence Health & Services Oregon operates at corporate scale — $5.5B in reported 2023 revenue. At over a billion in annual revenue, nonprofits typically run consolidated operations across multiple states or business lines, and the IRS Form 990 reflects a much larger operational footprint than a typical 501(c)(3). Program-spending efficiency is strong: 80% of total expenses flow to program activities, above the 75% benchmark most third-party charity raters use.

Revenue has grown meaningfully across the five-year filing history — a sign of expanding donor base, new grants, or scaling programs. Providence Health & Services Oregon reported $5.5B in 2023, up notably from the start of the window. CEO compensation is reported as zero in the filing — typical for nonprofits where the chief executive is paid through a related entity (parent system, university, or foundation) rather than the filing organization itself, or for small organizations whose chief is a volunteer or board member. Providence Health & Services Oregon is categorized under Health — the largest segment of U.S. nonprofit revenue, dominated by hospitals, hospital systems, and health-research organizations. Revenue-to-program ratios in this category often look different from smaller-program nonprofits because the underlying operations are capital-intensive.
