Submitted by Anonymous on Thu, 05/18/2017 - 18:08
- The roughly 140-hospital system partially attributed its operating results to a year-over-year increase in net patient service revenue of $990 million.
- The health system saw its operating income jump 40.8 percent year-over-year from $456 million to $642 million for the nine-month period.
- Ascension's operating expenses increased 1.1 percent year-over-year to $163.2 million in the period due to increased revenue cycle management fees as the system transitions to a new system.
- The system recorded net income of $1.5 billion in the nine months ended March 31, compared to a $67 million loss recorded in the same period a year prior.
- The strong results come as Ascension is "repositioning its portfolio of care delivery sites" with greater investments in outpatient assets.
