Debt or Dollars: The Hospital Sale That's Got Everyone Talking Medical Properties Trust's recent decision to sell two hospital investments for $413 million has sent shockwaves through the industry.
On September 16, the company announced it would convert Idaho Falls Community Hospital and Mountain View Hospital real estate into cash by selling them to Intermountain Health affiliates.
While this deal brings in a tidy sum of $371 million, investors are left wondering if debt reduction will outweigh lost rent.
