The financial commitment rests in 11 equity and fixed income investments, according to a Sept. 15 news release from the health system. The investees are a mix of community development financial institutions and private equity firms. Among them are Baltimore Community Lending, which seeks to revitalize downtown Baltimore, and FSC First, which provides direct loans to minority-owned businesses contributing to healthcare developments.
“This means using some of our investment portfolio to help address the resource gaps that keep communities from achieving better health and well-being while still gaining a positive financial return,” Mohan Suntha, MD, the health system’s CEO, said in the release.
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.
