HCA Healthcare Inc. Friday raised its full-year revenue and
earnings guidance after patient-care levels increased amid the
pandemic's delta-variant surge in the latest quarter.
The hospital company said it now expects 2021 revenue of $58.7
million to $59.3 million, and earnings of $17.20 a share to $17.80
a share.
In July, HCA forecast revenue of $57 billion to $58 billion, and
earnings of $16.30 a share to $17.10 a share.
The accuracy of the revised guidance depends on how closely the
course of the pandemic follows HCA's expectations, the company
said.
