The nation’s hospitals, with flattened patient volumes because of the coronavirus pandemic, are projected to lose more than $20 billion a month for the rest of 2020, according to a new report today from the American Hospital Association.
Those losses, combined with an estimated $202.6 billion in red ink hospital booked between March and June, mean that hospitals could see losses of $323.1 billion or more in 2020, the report said.
