Premier Stock Price, News & Analysis

Premier Inc. (NASDAQ: PINC) has announced its annual list of the 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals in the United States, published in Fortune. The analysis reveals significant performance advantages among top hospitals, including 25% fewer AMI deaths and 66% fewer CABG deaths compared to peers.

Key achievements include 30% fewer PCI complications, 19% fewer CABG complications, higher 30-day survival rates, and lower readmission rates. If all hospitals matched these performance levels, there could be 14,000 fewer deaths due to heart disease and potential savings of $1.5 billion in inpatient costs for the 2025 study year.
