The hospital is run by the Tasmanian Government, as part of the Department of Health and Human Services and is the largest hospital, and the largest employer, in Tasmania. The hospital provides services for all of southern Tasmania and has the capacity to facilitate 400 patients. Many statewide services such as cardiothoracic surgery, neurosurgery, major trauma, high-risk obstetrics, hyperbaric medicine and neonatal intensive care are based at the Hospital, with referrals coming in from the north and northwest.

The main entrance had undergone construction for a new underground emergency department. This began operation in early 2007 with surrounding construction ongoing. A more recent hospital Redevelopment Project had been initiated with A$565 million in funding, including a new women's and children's precinct, cancer service, intensive care unit, and day surgery facility.
