(Reuters) – HCA Healthcare Inc on Friday posted a quarterly profit that halved from the corresponding period last year when the hospital operator had benefited from sales of four hospitals in Georgia.
Net income attributable to HCA fell 50% to $1.13 billion, or $3.91 per share, in the third quarter ended Sept. 30, from $2.27 billion, or $7.00 per share, a year earlier.
