# The 31 largest healthcare providers in South Australia

Tamtam tracks 31 healthcare providers headquartered in South Australia. This list ranks all of them by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by SA Health, Royal Adelaide Hospital and AnglicareSA. Their median headcount is 472. Half of them were founded in 1949 or later. The most common headquarters are Adelaide (10).

The largest healthcare providers in South Australia are mostly large organizations, many of them public or non-profit, offering a wide range of medical and support services. SA Health is dedicated to improving public health, while the Royal Adelaide Hospital is a leading teaching hospital. AnglicareSA supports South Australians through diverse programs including disability and aged care, and Resthaven Incorporated also specializes in aged care services. SA Pathology provides statewide medical testing, and the SA Ambulance Service offers high-quality ambulance care.

The headquarters of these major healthcare providers are predominantly located in Adelaide and its surrounding suburbs, such as North Adelaide, Hindmarsh, Wayville, and Eastwood. This concentration suggests a central hub for healthcare administration and service delivery within the region. Many of these organizations, like the Royal Adelaide Hospital (founded 1840), AnglicareSA (1860), Minda Incorporated (1898), and Uniting Communities (1901), have a long history, with several established in the late 19th or early 20th century.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 13, 2026.
