The Lyndon Baines Johnson General Hospital, owned and operated by the Harris County Hospital District, is the second primary teaching facility for The University of Texas Medical School at Houston. This 332-bed hospital opened in 1989 and is a full-service general hospital with easy access for the indigent patients it serves. Health care services for the hospital district are provided by Affiliated Medical Services (a nonprofit organization composed of UT faculty), which staffs LBJ, and Baylor College of Medicine, which staffs Ben Taub General Hospital.
