In the third quarter of its fiscal year, the health system has seen a 10.6 percent year-over-year jump in patient service revenue, leading to an improved $8.8 million in operating revenue. Supply costs and the higher cost of labor are still a challenge for the system.
The price of supplies rose 16 percent year over year, and the system has 500 open nursing positions.
To grow revenue, Mr. Markell is focused on improving the ease of patient access, growing reimbursements and boosting growth centers.
