I was trying to find some sort of hospital stock that may be cheap based on a Barron's article that ran over the weekend. They mentioned HCA, so I tried to see if I could find any other hospital stocks that might be worth a look. I agree CYH is awful, their earnings have continued downward and their admissions continue downward as well. THC might be worth a look as it's trading at 2.6x FCF. All of these companies seem to have significant long term debt, which I assume can be explained by the fact that they are buying/building hospitals and maintaining them.
