Banner reported revenues of nearly $7 billion in 2015, up from $5.4 billion the year prior
The system’s financial boost was partially offset by rising expenses. Banner posted expenses of $6.8 billion in 2015, up 33.3 percent from $5.1 billion in 2014.
Banner ended 2015 with operating income of $128.4 million, down significantly from $263.3 million the year prior.
Banner Health Network, the system’s ACO, recorded an operating loss of $49.3 million in 2015, down from operating income of $7.2 million in 2014. Banner officials said the decline was attributable to several factors, including significant out-of-network utilizations and losses on the BHN full risk contract with MediSun/Blue Advantage plan.
Banner recorded net income of $83.7 million in 2015, down from net income of $238.5 million in 2014.
