This compared with an operating gain of $208.7 million in 2021. Total revenues in 2022 were $9.3 billion for the 23-hospital system.

Investment declines dragged the overall loss further down, to $464 million, compared with net income of $715.8 million in 2021.

The health system said late last year it has approximately $425 million annually to spend on capital projects over the next few years, with much of that figure coming from operating cash, philanthropy support and investment earnings.

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.
