Our financial performance in fiscal year 2009 was strong, allowing us to carefully reinvest in UMass Memorial to provide excellent care to members of all of our communities:
- Our year-end operating margin for all our hospitals and other entities was $83 million.
- Our total margin including investment income was $92 million. Both these margins include supplemental Medicaid funding provided to us by the Commonwealth in recognition of the extent of our care for the uninsured and Medicaid patients.
- We provided $60 million in care to patients without insurance.
