Stormy Weather: Navigating Profitability in the NFP Hospital Space with Kevin Holloran

February 15, 2023

Hospitals had a rough 2022 as they faced higher labor and supply costs, volatile patient volumes, and fragile payer relations. More than half of hospitals in 2022 are expected to result in negative margins, according to Kaufman Hall.
