Profitability a matter of ownership status. For-profit systems see earnings rise, while not-for-profits lag
Abstract
Healthcare systems' earnings performance last year was tied to their ownership status. For-profits saw an increase in earnings even though revenue decreased slightly. But not-for-profits' margins declined, even though those systems posted a robust increase in revenue. Those are among the findings of Modern Healthcare's revamped "Hospital Systems Survey."
