HCA Holdings, Inc. Analyst Notes
On April 2, 2014, Reuters reported that the Competition and Markets Authority, UK, has asked HCA International, an affiliate of HCA Holdings, Inc. (HCA) to sell one or more of its hospitals in London, after finding its business potential in the market for both self-pay and insured patients. According to Reuters report, the Britain's competition regulator, The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), said that it was clear HCA's market power in central London allowed it to charge higher prices to insurers. HCA, however, revealed its intentions to challenge the judgment in the courts. "In failing to consider our investment, the mix of patients we treat and the complex procedures we carry (out), the CMA has drawn inaccurate conclusions about HCA International's pricing - something which we strongly refute and will of course be challenging," Mike Neeb, President and CEO, HCA International Neeb was quoted saying.
