W. Carl Whitmer, president and CEO of IASIS, commented,”The effect of industry-wide pressures, including volume softness, payor mix shifts and Medicaid reimbursement cuts, created a challenging 2010 year. Despite these obstacles, our ability to generate significant cash flows, expand in new and existing markets, and maintain a strong financial position highlights the strength of our company.”
