Private equity firms bought 500 hospitals. Death rates in their emergency rooms went up 13%. They fired 12% of the staff. Then they paid themselves billions in dividends. A Harvard study just confirmed what doctors already knew: people are dying so investors can hit quarterly targets. Exactly what happens. A PE firm buys a hospital using debt. The debt gets placed on the hospital's balance sheet, not the firm's. Now the hospital owes hundreds of millions it never borrowed. To service that debt, the hospital cuts costs. Costs mean nurses. The numbers from the Harvard/University of Chicago study are horrifying. After PE acquisition, emergency department salary spending dropped 18.2%. ICU salary spending dropped 15.9%. Hospital-wide employees were cut 11.6%. Emergency department deaths rose 13%, seven additional deaths per 10,000 visits. A separate study found patients undergoing surgery at PE-acquired hospitals had 17% higher odds of dying within 90 days. Steward Health Care, owned by Cerberus Capital, filed bankruptcy with $9 billion in debt after closing hospitals across Massachusetts. The CEO lived on a $40 million yacht while emergency rooms went dark. Eight hospitals serving 2 million people nearly disappeared because a PE fund extracted more cash than the system could survive. The private equity industry has poured over $1 trillion into healthcare. They operate a quarter of ERs nationwide. This isn't going away. The investing angle nobody talks about. Non-PE hospital operators like HCA Healthcare (HCA) and Tenet (THC) are the direct beneficiaries. Every time a PE hospital closes or deteriorates, patients flow to the nearest competitor. HCA has returned 1,200% since 2011. Patient volume from PE closures is a structural tailwind nobody's pricing in. Medical staffing firms (AMN Healthcare, Cross Country) charge premium rates specifically because PE hospitals cut staff. The staffing shortage IS the business model for these companies. The disruption play: outpatient surgical centers (SCA Health, now part of UnitedHealth) are pulling profitable procedures out of hospitals entirely. PE-owned hospitals lose their highest-margin surgeries to outpatient, and the death spiral accelerates. Pull up tradevision and monitor healthcare M&A alerts, hospital closure filings, and patient volume migration data. When a PE-owned hospital announces "restructuring," the patient volume shift to competitors like HCA starts within 30 days. That 30-day window is when the competitor's earnings revisions haven't updated yet. Free to try. (a private equity firm bought your local hospital. borrowed $500 million in the hospital's name. fired 12% of the nurses. emergency room deaths rose 13%. then they paid themselves dividends. nobody went to prison. they're currently buying another hospital.)

@benhuncc I mean he's 4th/5th on the pecking order in Charlotte. In Chicago he was 1st/2nd. He needs to get more comfortable with his new role. Long term, probably not the best fit for him

Duke is a loaded defense and well deserving of having the winner for ACC DPOY. And I do love Maliq Brown. Think he's awesome. But very weird to have an ACC DPOY where the team is 4 points per 100 better on defense when he's off the court. Think I'd have gone Sarr or Ngongba

@TheJeremyDavid What do you mean all of a sudden? We bash Dookies because you've had generational talent after generational talent and have nothing to show for it.

@Pants287 I wish this could be posted on every X account that talks about college basketball. Too many people are just intellectually dishonest when it comes to this stuff. Clearly, the refs are ignoring it to favor UNC. And we still win😈😂🫣

Continue to be impressed by Henri Veeser's ability to play pristinely clean, foul-free basketball. Disciplined, savvy stuff.

@dombknowing @DanUgglaEnjoyer @PocsikWill @Johnhenson31 Yea I'm only talking about one of most defining moments of the Dook/UNC rivalry. Neither of our squads have won a championship in a while, even though ours is more recent. You want to compare elite 8s since 2017 which seems kinda silly.

@dombknowing @DanUgglaEnjoyer @PocsikWill @Johnhenson31 Agreed..while we're at it, maybe when your HoF coach has his farewell game, you're a favourite by 10+ points, and invite all of the Dook alumni to the game to celebrate the game...you probably shouldn't lose that game by 10+ points

@hornets This coach is doing something with his rotations. It's AWFUL. NEVER PUT KON WITH COBY WHITE. EVER. I HAVE BEEN SAYING THIS SINCE HE JOINED THE TEAM. EVERY SINGLE GAME COBY WHITE PLAYED, THEY HAVE LOST.
