Hospitals play a critical role in healthcare, offering specialized treatments and emergency services essential for public health, regardless of economic fluctuations or individuals' financial situations. Rising incomes and broader access to insurance have fueled demand for care in recent years, supporting hospitals' post-pandemic recovery initiated by federal policies and funding. The recovery for many hospitals was also promoted by mergers that lessened financial strains, especially in rural hospitals. This trend toward consolidation has resulted in fewer enterprises relative to establishments, enhancing hospitals' bargaining power regarding input costs and insurance reimbursements. With this improved position, hospitals are expected to see revenue climb at a CAGR of 2.0%, reaching $1.5 trillion by 2025, with a 3.2% increase in 2025 alone. Competition, economic conditions and regulatory changes will impact hospitals based on size and location. Smaller hospitals, particularly rural ones, may encounter more significant obstacles as the industry transitions from fee-based to value-based care. Independent hospitals face wage inflation, staffing shortages and drug supply costs. Although state and federal policies aim to support small rural hospitals in addressing hospital deserts, uncertainties linger over federal Medicare funding and Medicaid reimbursements, which account for nearly half of hospital care spending. Even so, increasing per capita disposable income and increasing the number of individuals with private insurance will boost revenues from private insurers and out-of-pocket payments for all hospitals, big and small. Hospitals will continue incorporating technological advancements in AI, telemedicine and wearables to enhance their services and reduce cost. These technologies aid hospital systems in strategically expanding outpatient services, mitigating the increasing competitive pressures from Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs) and capitalizing on the increased needs of an aging adult population and shifts in healthcare delivery preferences. As the consolidation trend advances and technology adoption further leverages economies of scale, industry revenue is expected to strengthen at a CAGR of 2.4%, reaching $1.7 trillion by 2030, with steady profit over the period.

This statistic shows the results of a survey conducted in the United States in March 2017. U.S. adults were asked if they would prefer to go to a for-profit or a non-profit hospital for treatments. Among respondents that identified as health care workers, about 17 percent would chose a for-profit hospital.

Accounting for under 5.0% of US hospitals, children's specialty hospitals are key to pediatric healthcare. And despite pandemic disruptions, industry revenue is expected to climb at a CAGR of 2.9% through 2025 to total $54.7 billion, with minimal growth of 0.1% in 2025. Several factors drive this growth, which outpaces the expected growth for the hospital sector overall. The closure of pediatric units in some general hospitals led some individuals to seek treatment at specialty hospitals. The rapid adoption of telemedicine, AI-aided diagnostics and monitoring also brought cost savings and expanded markets that contribute to revenue growth. Half of the revenue for children's hospitals comes from private insurance and increases in the number of people with private insurance have contributed to industry performance. However, two-fifths of industry revenue stems from government insurance. In April 2025, ten states remained Medicaid non-expansion states, affecting children's access to health services. Over half of uninsured children reside in non-expansion states, leaving a market segment underserved and a source of future revenue. Children's specialty hospitals' cost challenges are impacted by location. Some rural regions face persistent shortages of physicians and nurses, which leads to wage inflation and impacts service availability. Meanwhile, urban hospitals deal with increased and challenging occupancy rates. While consolidations can ease financial pressure and create economies of scale, advancements in telemedicine and innovations in wearables and medical devices could shift services from smaller rural hospitals to larger urban ones, worsening the imbalance. Looking forward, budget cuts at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), federal agency consolidations and spending cuts from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) threaten children's specialty hospitals by undermining pediatric research, potentially stalling advancements in therapies for conditions like childhood cancers and rare diseases. Hospital financial stability and the risk of service reductions will vary by state and require proactive policy advocacy and alternative revenue strategies. Despite funding challenges, demand for services from children's specialty hospitals is expected to remain strong because of the increasing prevalence of conditions like asthma, obesity, diabetes and congenital anomalies in those under 18. Industry revenue will strengthen at a CAGR of 2.6% through the end of 2030, reaching $62.3 billion, with profit as a share of revenue expected to strengthen and surpass pre-pandemic levels.

This statistic shows the results of a survey conducted in the United States in March 2017, by community type.

In total, a greater percentage of respondents in urban or city communities preferred for-profit hospitals, than did respondents living in rural communities.

Context

Health care in the United States is provided by many distinct organizations. Health care facilities are largely owned and operated by private sector businesses. 58% of US community hospitals are non-profit, 21% are government owned, and 21% are for-profit. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the United States spent more on healthcare per capita ($9,403), and more on health care as percentage of its GDP (17.1%), than any other nation in 2014. Many different datasets are needed to portray different aspects of healthcare in US like disease prevalences, pharmaceuticals and drugs, Nutritional data of different food products available in US. Such data is collected by surveys (or otherwise) conducted by Centre of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Foods and Drugs Administration, Center of Medicare and Medicaid Services and Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). These datasets can be used to properly review demographics and diseases, determining start ratings of healthcare providers, different drugs and their compositions as well as package informations for different diseases and for food quality. We often want such information and finding and scraping such data can be a huge hurdle. So, Here an attempt is made to make available all US healthcare data at one place to download from in csv files.

Industry revenue fell by an average of 1.5% per year between 2020 and 2025. The inflation-related cost increases, which are not fully reflected in the prices that hospitals are allowed to charge the health insurance funds, are offset by legally capped revenue increases. The earnings situation has deteriorated for a large majority of hospitals following the coronavirus pandemic. In addition to a lack of inflation compensation, many hospitals have been affected by investment subsidies from the federal states that have been too low for years and various tariff increases.A tariff increase is also due in 2025, which is unlikely to be fully refinanced by the state and will hardly be offset by reserves or efficiency improvements. The persistent underfunding of operating costs due to the current statutory regulations poses an existential threat to hospitals. Hospitals are using up their reserves and falling into debt. In addition to going out of business, many hospitals are reducing important care services for financial reasons and implementing cost-cutting programmes such as staff reductions, site or department closures and bed closures. However, a slight increase in turnover of 1.8% to 162.7 billion euros is expected for 2025 compared to the previous year.For the period from 2025 to 2030, IBISWorld expects average annual sales growth of 1.9%. Turnover is therefore expected to reach 178.7 billion euros in 2030. Important prerequisites for growth are climate-friendly restructuring, digitalisation and process optimisation of treatment procedures. There is particular growth potential in the increasing outpatientisation of hospitals, which will be a key part of the structural change in healthcare. Demographic change poses a major challenge. A large proportion of employees will retire in the coming years and the vacant positions are only likely to be partially filled. At the same time, an ageing population and advances in medicine with new diagnostic and treatment methods will lead to an increase in demand for healthcare services, while the number of facilities is likely to fall due to high cost pressure as well as mergers and acquisitions. Smaller hospital operators in particular are increasingly joining together to form alliances in order to remain competitive against large hospital groups.

This statistic shows the results of a survey conducted in the United States in March 2017, by gender. U.S. adults were asked if they think that treatment in a for-profit hospital is better than in a non-profit hospital. According to the results, a higher percentage of men than women thought that care in for-profit hospitals was much better than in non-profit hospitals.

After several turbulent years, hospital construction activity is bouncing back, with contractors experiencing a much-needed rebound after the disruption brought on by the pandemic. The industry hit a low point between 2020 and 2023, when project activity stalled because of strict capital budgets, labor and material shortages and uncertainty about hospital demand. Contractors who saw a dwindling backlog during this time have enjoyed a resurgence in bidding and a ramping up of both new construction and remodeling jobs, spurred in part by rising hospital occupancy and the lure of federal tax incentives for energy-efficient upgrades. Climbing occupancy at hospitals has also boosted remodeling work, benefiting contractors. Overall, industry revenue has been increasing at a CAGR of 2.1% to total an estimated $34.6 billion in 2025, including an estimated 3.4% increase in 2025. Hospital construction contractors had to navigate persistent cost pressures and tough competition, all while handling shifts in hospital funding. Profitability took a hit as material prices and wages soared through 2022, with heightened material costs and labor shortages complicating job pricing and scheduling. Contractors were forced to accept slimmer profit just to keep projects moving when private hospitals delayed or downsized capital investments and nonprofit community hospitals struggled under tighter Medicaid reimbursements and operational losses. Only as pandemic-era constraints eased did capital flows begin to strengthen, allowing contractors to rebuild lost ground and pass on more costs to end customers from 2023 to 2025. Still, tariffs have led to climbing construction material costs, putting additional pressure on profit. Looking ahead, the outlook is a mix of opportunity and risk. Federal policy changes, including the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and the expiration of 179D tax credits, will shake up funding streams, pushing rural hospitals in particular to reshape their construction plans as they work through shrinking Medicaid reimbursements and temporary relief programs. On the other hand, rising occupancy rates and looming seismic retrofit mandates in states like California are expected to drive a wave of new projects, especially modernization and expansion work. Industry revenue is forecast to increase at a CAGR of 3.5% to total an estimated $41.1 billion through the end of 2030.

Revenue growth for the Psychiatric Hospitals industry has been sluggish in recent years, constrained by changing government mental health care policies, which are favouring community-based preventative treatments designed to reduce the need for more costly treatment in psychiatric hospitals. These changing policy priorities are reflected in a downwards trend in the number of mental health beds available in public psychiatric hospitals. In some instances, these beds have been replaced by additional beds in specialised psychiatric units or wards within public acute hospitals, although these are not included within the scope of this report. National mental health strategies have focused on prevention, decreasing hospitalisation and increasing the population's general wellbeing. The growing prevalence of community-based treatments and the availability of telehealth services has expanded access to mental health services, with the hope that this will reduce the need for admission to psychiatric hospitals. Community prevention strategies include education and awareness for young people, with such strategies likely to limit demand for psychiatric hospitals, particularly over the long term. Simultaneously, the private sector has assumed a relatively greater role, with mental health bed numbers in private psychiatric hospitals on the rise. This has contributed to a corresponding upwards trend in the number of hospitalisations and patient days, although the COVID-19 outbreak constrained growth. In some instances, potential private patients were reluctant to enter a hospital setting during the pandemic, contributing to lower private hospital admissions. In view of its changing operating environment, growth in industrywide revenue has been negligible at an expected annualised 0.1% over the five years through 2023-24 to total $1.6 billion, including a 2.7% rise anticipated in 2023-24. In the coming years, demand for psychiatric services will continue to shift away from public psychiatric hospitals and towards private psychiatric hospitals, community-based treatments and psychiatric units co-located in general hospitals. Industry revenue is forecast to grow at an annualised 2.7% over the five years through 2028-29 to $1.9 billion. Profit margins will remain constrained by the industry's not-for-profit component.
