Beth Kutscher at Modern Healthcare has had to unopen ane of its hospitals for bad performance, "after the long-struggling infirmary lastly succumbed to the intense contest [from the non-profit hospitals] for patients due south of Boston."
The theatre has likewise resisted acre requests for its most recent fiscal reports. Is that a sign that the numbers are then bad that the fellowship doesn't desire them to live disclosed publicly?
I remember an official from this theatre commenting inwards 2011 nigh the virtues of mortal equity ownership compared to the administration of non-profit hospitals:
At a recent conference, ane mortal equity official derisively talked nigh the inadequacies of local pose leaders eating their "stale bologna sandwiches" at Board of Trustees meetings, to depict a contrast alongside the unsentimental businesslike conduct of a board chosen yesteryear his firm.
What's next? How volition this hurting end? How volition essential infirmary services live provided to host communities if the fellowship is unable to run into fiscal targets? As I noted inwards 2011:
Those seeking to regulate the conduct in addition to fiscal decisions of for-profit hospitals volition detect that their shipping hoc potency volition probable live insufficient to protect the populace involvement . . . .
Investors may come upwards in addition to go, simply the community depends on its local infirmary to furnish high character service. It is the residents of the community who are left asset the pocketbook if the infirmary corporation reaches the conclusion that ownership is non financially viable.
