 PROFILE
The humbling of HCA (formerly HCA - The Healthcare Company) is a case of Goliath vs. Goliath. This Goliath, one of the largest hospital chains in the US, cut itself off at the knees with its own internal problems. HCA operates nearly 200 hospitals and almost 80 surgery centers in the US, Switzerland, and the UK. In response to lawsuits, investigations, and fraud charges (including one settled for nearly $750 million for overbilling that other Goliath, the government), HCA is making itself over as a gentle giant. Rising costs and slashed reimbursement rates have prompted the firm to trim its operations and cut expenses to shore up a sagging bottom line.
