Business Problem • Much of the national healthcare financial crisis comes down to local cash flow. • Providers generate Medicare and other insurance claims when they treat patients. • Payment can take 90 days or more. • Claims are difficult to value (time, amount) • Traditional receivables funding can be expensive.
Financial Pressure Increasing “Medicare inpatient reimbursement rate cuts … threatening to affect borrowing costs…” “…Medicare accounts for 44 percent of the revenue of Moody's rated not-for-profit hospitals” “The easy costs are out of the system and they're having to dig deep” Source: Modern Healthcare Jan 12 2015
Access To Capital • Healthcare bond issuances in 2014 fell 16% • BBB vs AA = $850M additional interest • AA rating requires 7% margins or higher • Perhaps 1/3 of hospitals can access the public market • Largest liquid asset – high quality AR – not well employed nor fairly valued by either banks or Wall Street
