The hospital started in 1944 when the Humble Oil and Refining Company, now ExxonMobil, contributed $500,000 to construction of a hospital in Baytown.[3] Local businesses, organizations and individuals added $1.2 million to Humble Oil's contribution. In 1948, the hospital opened as San Jacinto Memorial Hospital.

The hospital became part of Houston Methodist in 1983. It changed its name to Houston Methodist San Jacinto in 2013.[4] Another renaming came in 2018 — Houston Methodist Baytown Hospital.[5]
