Steward's Bankruptcy: How Exposed is Medical Properties Trust?
The recent bankruptcy filing by Steward Health Care System has been a major event in the healthcare industry, with significant implications for healthcare real estate investors. This situation exposes potential risks and opportunities for those invested in Medical Properties Trust (MPW), which owns a large portion (at least 28 out of the 31) of Steward's hospital properties.
Per a recent Wall Street Journal article, state regulators are taking action to ensure patient care remains a priority and the healthcare system maintains stability. These interventions have the potential to influence property ownership transfers and operational requirements within the sector. Building on the WSJ's analysis, we've undertaken an initial step to illuminate a key concern for market participants: the concentration of Steward facilities within the MPW portfolio. This initial exploration empowers healthcare CRE professionals to delve deeper into the implications of lease agreements and the financial health of each Steward facility owned by MPW. Key metrics to consider in this assessment include historical occupancy rates, the mix of commercial versus government insurance payments (payor mix), and individual facility profitability.
