As IACH increases the availability of virtual health appointments, we’re excited to offer patients a convenient way to receive quality care without visiting the hospital in person.

IACH is proud to announce that it has earned The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval for both Hospital and Primary Care Medical Home Accreditation. The Gold Seal is a symbol of quality that reflects a health care organization’s commitment to providing safe and quality patient care.

Effective Nov. 12, 2024, the IACH Appointment Line will adjust its opening hours to 7:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. This change moves the opening time from 7:00 a.m. to 7:30 a.m., while closing hours remain unchanged.

Beginning November 1, Irwin Army Community Hospital will roll out a new program aimed at making it easier for patients to access same-day appointments in our Patient-Centered Medical Homes (PCMH). Each morning at 7:30 a.m., IACH will post the number of same-day appointments available that day on the hospital’s Facebook page, giving patients an opportunity to secure last-minute openings for medical care without needing to go off-post.
