Abstract
- The article explores the business model, practices, and culture at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) in Pennsylvania to gain insight into its alleged focus on profitability. Topics discussed include the way UPMC ignored the advice of Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf to suspend elective procedures due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the relationship between UPMC and surrounding communities, and the entry of UPMC into the health insurance business.
