Mass General Brigham bolstered its bottom line, despite industry uncertainty

Despite uncertainty and concern buffeting Massachusetts hospitals, the state’s largest health system saw its finances improve last year, turning a small operating surplus and receiving a boon from investment income.
Mass General Brigham on Friday reported a $59.2 million operating gain in the year ending in September, a 0.3% margin, compared to a $45.7 million gain in the same period the year prior. Those numbers, along with a sizable gain from investments, contributed to a $2.4 billion net margin. Last year, the system reported $2 billion in net gains.
