This drop is due in part to significantly less investment gains realized this quarter over the third quarter of 2014. However, the medical center brought in $182.6 million in revenue in the three months ended June 30, nearly a 3 percent increase over the same period last year. For the six months ending June 30, the system recorded $527 million in total revenue, up 2.9 percent from $512.5 million last year.

Inpatient admissions at Tuft’s facilities increased year-over-year by 4.6 percent while outpatient visits dipped 1.3 percent for the third quarter of this year.

Year-to-date, Tufts has brought in net income of $9.4 million, a 41 percent decrease from $16.1 million this time last year.
