PROFILE |
 |
Community Health Systems (CHS) owns and operates full-service, acute care hospitals in nonurban areas where CHS is typically the prominent primary health care provider. CHS operates about 50 hospitals in some 20 states, primarily in the southern US. The hospitals offer a variety of inpatient and outpatient medical, surgical, and emergency services; some offer skilled nursing and home health services as well. CHS's size provides greater leverage in negotiating purchasing agreements (including one with Tenet Healthcare's BuyPower) and HMO contracts. Investment firm Forstmann Little & Co. owns about half of the company.
