The 699-bed hospital had an operating net of $2.8 million, compared with an operating loss of $16.2 million last year.
Steven Sonenreich, who has been CEO for 8.5 years, attributed the turnaround to the hospital’s heart surgery team, which has attracted VIP patients from around the world and expanded its patient volume by 51 percent in 2009.
Net patient revenue increased from $454.3 million to $478.8 million last year, even as uninsured patients represented 21 percent of gross charges and the hospital wrote off $34.5 million in charity care.
However, Mount Sinai still has $260.7 million in debts, about twice the size of comparable hospitals, Mr. Sonenreich said.
