Even After Reopening, Healthcare Delivery Organizations Still Hurting Financially

摘要

Research from the Alexandria, Va.-based trade association AMGA reveals that nearly 9 in 10 medical groups and integrated health systems report their revenue has declined by 25 percent or more during the COVID-19 pandemic. These findings, compiled from recent surveys conducted by AMGA, highlight the urgent need for Congress to provide more financial assistance to U.S. healthcare providers, the association's officials concluded. The 95 respondents to the AMGA surveys included leaders from 59 of the nation's preeminent integrated health systems and 36 independent medical groups. The surveys were conducted May 26 to June 1. The data showed that nearly 90 percent of medical groups and integrated health systems report that their revenue has declined by 25 percent or more during the COVID-19 pandemic, with nearly 40 percent of medical groups and 20 percent of integrated health systems saying monthly revenue losses have exceeded 50 percent.
