Update on Columbus LTACH performance
QIIC's previously announced acquisition of the Columbus LTACH continues its strong performance. Historically and industry-wide the occupancy rates during the summer months at an LTACH are cyclically low yet the facility is averaging over 95% occupancy rate with average occupancy of 58 beds in June and 61 beds in July. Columbus LTACH continues to source high acuity patients with strong reimbursement profiles.
"We are pleased with the progress and continued growth in procedure volumes at CSS. As CSS builds its presence and track record with payors we hope to see higher facility fee reimbursement rates moving forward which will increase both revenues and profits. Our recently acquired Anesthesia business will also benefit from CSS's increased procedure volumes" Grant White, Quantum's CEO and Chairman of the Board.
