Nonprofit HealthONE, largest CO hospital group, bought by largest US for-profit, HCA

Published

Specializes in ICU + Infection Prevention.

So, as I understood it, HealthONE, the largest hospital consortium in CO, was controlled by non-profit CHF, but HCA, the largest for-profit hospital corp in the USA, bought them out of their share.

HCA has over 160 hospitals and 100 other facilities. HCA is publicly traded, listed on NYSE (HCA), IPO was Q1 this year and market cap is over $17B!!!

HealthONE has Swedish, Rose, Med Center of Aurora, North Suburban, PSL, Skyridge, Spalding Rehab, RRMC, and a bunch of other smaller facilities.

What are the implications of this for CO and CO RNs?
