5 MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Operating Income Summary. MHS generated operating income of $146.5 million, for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to $84.8 million during the year ended December 31, MHS continues to experience increasing admissions as well as a favorable shift in outpatient mix. Progress has continued in the efforts to control and reduce costs in order to meet the challenges that reimbursement pressures pose on financial results. Operating Revenue. Total operating revenue increased $175.1 million (12.6%) from $1.384 billion in the year ended December 31, 2011, to $1.559 billion for the same period in This change was primarily due to increases in inpatient as well as outpatient volumes during the periods presented. For the year ended December 31, 2012, adjusted admissions increased 12.6% compared to the same period in Auburn Medical Center contributed $42.6 million in gross revenue to the overall performance. During 2012, MHS received various settlements from payers that contributed approximately $20 million in additional net patient revenue to the organization. Payor mix, however continues to trend toward higher Medicare and higher private pay, which has led to higher bad debt and charity care compared to Charity care, as a percent of gross patient service revenue, increased to 2.8% for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to 2.2% in 2011 due to an increase in qualifying patients. Bad debts increased to $132.0 million (2.8% of gross patient service revenue) in 2012, compared to $117.8 million (2.9% of gross patient service revenue) in 2011 due to continued higher levels of patients without insurance. Management continues to pursue several strategies to improve reimbursement including payor contract optimization, denial management, and improved point-of-service cash collections. During 2012 and 2011, MHS received payments in the amount of $6.6 million and $10.3 million, respectively, for meeting the meaningful use criteria for its use of its Electronic Health Records. These amounts are reflected as part of other operating revenue in the summary of revenues and expenses shown. Operating Expenses. Total operating expense increased $113.4 million (8.7%) from $1.299 billion in the year ended December 31, 2011, to $1.413 billion for the same period in Total operating expense per adjusted admission, however, decreased 3.5% from $15,522 during the year ended December 31, 2011 to $14,992 for the same period in This is largely due to management s focus on cost reduction measures, which includes a reduction in average length of stay from 4.00 in 2011 to 3.96 in 2012, while continuing to focus on quality patient care. Salaries, as a percent of net patient service revenue, were 44.5% for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared with 46.7% for the same period in 2011 and full-time equivalents (FTE s) were 7,858 at December 31, 2012 vs. 7,580 in the prior year as a result of the addition of approximately 750 Auburn employees upon acquisition offset by FTE reductions elsewhere throughout the organization. Employee benefits were $8.5 million higher for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the prior year primarily due to increases in unemployment expense, pension expense, employee medical and dental benefit expenses, and the addition of Auburn Medical Center. Supplies were $19.3 million (11.5%) higher than the prior year primarily due to increased volumes, including those from Auburn (which represents approximately $4.5 million of the increase). Depreciation was $5.8 million (6.2%) higher than the prior year due to the completion of major construction projects including primarily the nearly $380 million Dally Tower at Good Samaritan, which opened in the first quarter of 2011 and the addition of Auburn assets. Interest expense increased by $4.2 million from 2011 to 2012 primarily due to the issuance of approximately $140 million in new debt in November ($100 million drawn and outstanding as of December 31, 2012) and the conversion of the 2009 bonds from a variable interest-rate mode to fixed rate bonds in July. Other operating expense increased 17.4% in 2012, compared to 2011, primarily due to external consulting in support of cost structure improvement projects and higher building lease costs in 2012 as compared to the same period in Non-Operating Income. Non-operating gains totaled $81.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to losses of $25.5 million during Investment income was $83.5 million, during the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to investment gains of $17.4 million during The remainder of the variance is primarily a result of changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps. Net Income. Operating income of $146.5 million, combined with the non-operating gains of $81.9 million, produced an excess of revenues over expenses of $228.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $59.3 million during Balance Sheet/Financial Position. As of December 31, 2012, unrestricted cash and investments were $1.065 billion, compared with $866.3 million as of December 31, 2011, an increase of $198.6 million. Cash and investments available within one week or less totaled $910.7 million as of December 31, 2012, compared to $842.5 million, as of December 31, During 2012, MHS issued $140 million in new debt, of which approximately $100 million was outstanding at December 31, 2012, which was used primarily for the purchase of Auburn Medical Center.
