Acute Care Hospitals: Exciting Times Ahead
posted on May 5, 2016
While there are many who see better times ahead for hospitals as a result of the increases in insured populations following implementation of the Affordable Care Act, H2C anticipates a potentially different outcome. The attached article takes a recent MEDPAC Report about population aging two steps further by: (1) applying utilization rates associated with various age groups to show that even with a continuation of the trend toward reduced utilization rates, the future points to increasing demand for IP services and thus increased investment; and (2) showing that because more of these services will likely be reimbursed at increasingly lower average rates, growing at less than healthcare cost inflation, the future looks extremely challenging for acute care providers.
Should you have any questions about the article or desire to discuss the sector with an H2C professional, information about the firm and how to contact us is presented at the end of the article.
