While operating losses were relatively modest at $30.3 million for the year ended Sept. 30, significant declines in the value of unrealized investments drove the overall loss figure down. The approximately $520 million loss compares with a $1.1 billion net gain for the hospital in 2021.

Kevin Churchwell, MD, president and CEO of the hospital, told Becker’s in late December that 2022 was an unpredictable year and said it was teamwork that was able to see the hospital cope as well as it did.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
