In terms of hospitals under operation, HCA is the largest non-government operator in the United States.[1]
HCA expects overall demand for its services to rise. The US Census Bureau predicts thats the number of persons in the US over the age of 65 will increase by a Compounded annual growth rate - CAGR of 3% over the next 20 years. This means that it will correspond to roughly 19.3% of the US population by 2030. The rise in this age group will increase demand for healthcare services and medical procedures. Furthermore, the Health Reform Law which was signed into law by President Obama in 2010 expands healthcare coverage to uninsured Americans. This significant rise will further drive the demand for healthcare related services.[2]
