In addition to its main hospital campus, Piedmont Augusta has outpatient medical offices and imaging centers servicing the surrounding 25-county region comprising the CSRA (Georgia and South Carolina). Piedmont Augusta provides prompt care, primary care, and specialty physicians such as Endocrinology, Neuroscience, Heart and Vascular, Rheumatology and Gastroenterology. A 25-bed medical center located in McDuffie County has been added recently.

In 2021, it was announced that Piedmont Healthcare was going to take over University Hospital, and the hospital officially became Piedmont Augusta on March 1, 2022.
