Purchased services account for approximately 20% of a hospital's total operating costs. According to the American Hospital Association, registered U.S. hospitals spent $991 billion on annual operating expenses in 2017. Taking the 20% equation into consideration, this means approximately $198 billion of that spend can be attributed to purchased services expenses.
