Data / Hospital fundamentals

State quarterly hospital financials

Quarterly revenue, expense, income, volumes and payer mix that hospitals file with their state regulator, starting with California, matched to the federal facility ID.

What it is

Medicare cost reports (HCRIS) are annual and arrive several quarters after a hospital's year end. A handful of states require every licensed hospital to file quarterly financial and utilization reports and publish them in bulk. This product normalizes those filings, California first, into one table keyed on the state facility ID and matched to the hospital's CCN so it joins to every other Healthparse product.

California's Department of Health Care Access and Information (HCAI) publishes the Hospital Quarterly Financial and Utilization Report for about 440 hospitals each quarter: gross and net patient revenue, deductions, capitation, operating revenue and expense, operating and net income, bad debt, charity care, a balance sheet from 2024, beds, patient days, discharges, outpatient and emergency visits, and Medicare and Medi-Cal days, discharges and net revenue. Hospitals file within 45 days of quarter end; HCAI posts about four months after quarter end.

The series ties out. For the 193 California hospitals whose fiscal year is the calendar year, the sum of the four 2024 quarters divided by the HCRIS annual total revenues has a median of 0.999 (interquartile range 0.977 to 1.002; 165 of 193 within ±10%). This is the same hospital reporting the same year, two to three quarters earlier.

What a desk does with it

Hospital financials two to three quarters ahead of HCRIS. The four quarters tie to the annual cost report at a median ratio of 0.999.
