The drop was attributed to a $134 million investment loss during the first nine months of the year. The system’s operating income, however, grew. Carolinas reported revenue of $2.9 billion and revenue minus expenses (excluding investment losses) of $111 million for the first nine months, up 45 percent from the same period a year ago. The gains were driven by a reported 5.6 increase in patient volumes, according to the report.
The system also reported a 16 percent increase in uncompensated care for the first nine months compared to the same period a year ago.
