The Hospital Universitario Fundación Alcorcón (HUFA) is a major general hospital in Alcorcón, a city in the Madrid metropolitan area of Spain. It was founded in 1997.

Although the hospital was built by the Spanish National Health System, its operational management is contracted out to a private company, and is exempt from many of the rules normally imposed on state-owned hospitals. The hospital was allowed to negotiate its own contracts with workers. The governance of the hospital includes local government, trade unions, health workers and community groups.

The hospital's organizational structure is thought to have been one of the inspirations behind the creation of the United Kingdom's system of NHS Foundation Trusts.

In October 2014, the hospital was reported to be treating a case of Ebola virus disease under strict biosecurity precautions. The patient, Maria Teresa Romero Ramos, had arrived at the hopital by ambulance on October 6. After diagnosis, she was later transferred to the Hospital Carlos III in Madrid for treatment.
