HCA Is Feeling the Effects of a Rising Uninsured Rate
HCA Healthcare operates the largest hospital network in the US. It focuses on attractive geographic locations where it can lead and increase market share. Its facilities are concentrated in Texas and Florida, which represent over half of its bed count. In those states, the urban areas of focus include Dallas, Austin, Tampa, and Miami. We believe these geographic areas provide a good sense of the positive demographic factors that the firm aims to benefit from nationwide.
