Inflation & supply
chain disruptions
A combination of inflation for
goods and services and labor
shortages have driven a

10.4% increase in health care
sector costs in 2022.1
Labor shortages
Hospitals and providers are
seeing labor costs increase at
every level. Total expenses per
adjusted discharge rose 3%
month over month and 7%
through October 2022.2
Increased demand
for care
Within Kaiser Permanente’s
system, we’ve seen
significant increases in care
volume, particularly
outpatient services.

Provider challenges
Health care providers
nationwide are facing
significant upward pressure on
the costs to deliver care. By
many accounts, 2022 was the
worst financial year for
hospitals in decades.3
The impacts of inflation, supply chain disruptions, historic labor shortages, and rebounds in care demand are creating economic challenges for the entire health care sector.

1. National Hospital Flash Report, Kaufman, Hall & Associates, LLC, June 2022. 2. “October's labor woes drive higher costs, worsened margins for hospitals:

Kaufman Hall” Fierce Healthcare, October 2022. 3. “Hospitals on Track for Worst Financial Year in Decades” Becker’s Hospital Review, October 2022.
