Teaching Hospitals of Texas

Formed in 1986, Teaching Hospitals of Texas (THOT) is a 501(c)(6) non-profit association of state, public and non-profit hospitals and health systems committed to providing access to quality health care for all Texans and to training the next generation of physicians, nurses and allied health personnel.

THOT members operate ten of Texas' Level I trauma centers, in addition to regional burn units and poison control centers. The association strives to develop and support public policy at the state level that provides the necessary funding to ensure our state's neediest families access to affordable preventive and acute care services.
