As the world reels from the effects of COVID-19, Quorum Health Corporation - a major American healthcare provider and operator of hospitals in 13 U.S. states - has filed for bankruptcy.
The Tennessee-based company had announced on Mar. 31 that it would be delaying its annual report for 2019. Quorum ended the third quarter of last year with a net loss of $76 million on revenues of $420 million. In the third quarter of 2018, the company recorded a net loss of $54 million on revenues of nearly $461 million.
