#1
CMS IPPS Base Rate (FY25)
$7,912/case
MANUAL
Medicare acute inpatient prospective payment base rate for current fiscal year. The single biggest revenue variable for hospital systems. Every dollar change = millions.
#2
Medicare Advantage Pen.
51.4%
MANUAL
Share of Medicare beneficiaries in MA plans. Above 50% = MA is now the majority payer for most hospitals. Drives revenue cycle complexity and rate negotiations.
#3
Travel Nurse Rate (RN)
$68/hr bill
MANUAL
Contract/travel RN bill rate. Down from COVID peaks but still elevated. Major swing factor in hospital labor cost and EBITDA margin for health systems.
#4
Healthcare Labor CPI
+4.1% YoY
FRED · CUS000SAM2
Medical care services CPI. Persistent above 4% means labor cost inflation is outpacing reimbursement rate increases for most payers.
#5
Medicaid Enrollment (M)
94.2M enrollees
MANUAL
Total Medicaid enrollment. Post-PHE unwinding reduced this from peak. Current trajectory affects state managed care contract renewals and volumes.
#6
Hospital EBITDA Margin
5.2% (median)
MANUAL
Sector median EBITDA margin — under significant pressure. Below 5% historically signals credit rating stress and capex deferral. Watch for covenant headroom.
#7
Drug & Pharma PPI
-1.8% YoY
FRED · PCU325412325412
Pharmaceutical producer price index. Declining reflects IRA drug pricing negotiations impact. Meaningful for pharma/PBM contracting decisions.
#8
Days in A/R (Avg)
54 days
MANUAL
Average accounts receivable days for hospital sector. Rising signals payer processing delays or revenue cycle degradation. Benchmark for portfolio company ops reviews.
