UNIVERSAL HEALTH SERVICES, INC. REPORTS

2014 SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS, INCREASES 2014 FULL YEAR EARNINGS GUIDANCE AND ANNOUNCES SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

Consolidated Results of Operations, As Reported Three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

KING OF PRUSSIA, PA Universal Health Services, Inc. (NYSE: UHS) announced today that its reported net income attributable to UHS was

$151.7 million, or $1.51 per diluted share, during the second quarter of 2014 as compared to $151.8 million, or $1.53 per diluted share, during the comparable quarter of 2013.

Net revenues increased 10.0% to $2.02 billion during the second quarter of 2014 as compared to $1.83 billion during the second quarter of

2013. Included in our net revenues during the second quarter of 2014 was approximately $15 million of additional net revenues recorded in connection with the Texas Medicaid Waiver (approximately $9 million applicable to the period of April 1,

2013 through June 30, 2014) and the Texas Delivery Service Reform Incentive Payment programs (approximately $6 million applicable to the period of October 1, 2013 through March 31, 2014).

Reported net income attributable to UHS was $289.7 million, or $2.89 per diluted share, during the first six months of 2014 as compared to

$271.6 million, or $2.75 per diluted share, during the comparable period of 2013. Net revenues increased 7.5% to $3.94 billion during the first six months of 2014 as compared to $3.67 billion during the comparable period of 2013.

We remain pleased with the underlying strength of our two businesses , said Alan B. Miller, Chief Executive Officer. The

reduction in uncompensated care at our acute care hospitals resulting both from healthcare reform and improvements in the underlying economy partially reverses a trend that had been hindering our results for an extended period of time .

Consolidated Results of Operations, As Adjusted Three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, our adjusted net income attributable to UHS, as calculated on the attached Schedule of

Non-GAAP Supplemental Consolidated Statements of Income Information ( Supplemental Schedule ), increased approximately 30% to $155.6 million, or $1.55 per diluted share, as compared to $118.9 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, during the

second quarter of 2013.

Included in our reported and adjusted net income attributable to UHS during the second quarter of 2014 is the

after-tax impact of approximately $9 million, or $.09 per diluted share, resulting from

above-mentioned $15 million of net revenues recorded in connection with the Texas Medicaid Waiver and the Texas Delivery Service Reform Incentive Payment programs. Approximately $6 million, or

$.06 per diluted share, of this amount was attributable to periods prior to the second quarter of 2014. Also during the second quarter of 2014, we recorded an increase to the already established reserve in connection with the previously disclosed

Garden City Employees Retirement System v. PSI matter. The increase in the reserve recorded during the second quarter of 2014 did not have a material impact on our financial statements. The trial in this matter is scheduled to begin in

mid-September, 2014. Should we be deemed liable or enter into a settlement agreement related to this matter, we believe we would be entitled to commercial insurance recoveries for at least a portion of amounts paid by us, subject to certain

limitations and deductibles. Although we cannot predict the outcome, it is possible the commercial insurance recoveries may not be sufficient to cover the ultimate disposition of this matter (including related legal fees) which would make us liable

for a potentially material excess amount.

As reflected on the Supplemental Schedule, included in our reported results during the second

quarter of 2014 was an aggregate net unfavorable after-tax impact of approximately $3.9 million, or $.04 per diluted share, related to the incentive income and depreciation and amortization expense recorded in connection with the implementation of

electronic health records ( EHR ) applications at our acute care hospitals.

As reflected on the Supplemental Schedule, included

in our reported results during the second quarter of 2013 was: (i) a net favorable after-tax impact of $37.8 million, or $.38 per diluted share, resulting from a reduction to our professional and general liability self-insurance reserves

relating to years prior to 2013, based upon a reserve analysis, and; (ii) an unfavorable after-tax impact of approximately $4.9 million, or $.05 per diluted share, related to the incentive income and expenses recorded in connection with the

implementation of EHR applications.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, our adjusted net income attributable to UHS, as

calculated on the attached Supplemental Schedule, increased approximately 22% to $292.3 million, or $2.92 per diluted share, as compared to $239.1 million, or $2.42 per diluted share, during the comparable period of 2013.

As reflected on the Supplemental Schedule, included in our reported results during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 was:

(i) an aggregate net unfavorable after-tax impact of approximately $8.9 million, or $.09 per diluted share, related to the incentive income and depreciation and amortization expense recorded in connection with the implementation of EHR

applications, and; (ii) a favorable after-tax impact of $6.3 million, or $.06 per diluted share, resulting from a gain realized on the sale of a non-operating investment during the first quarter of 2014.

Included in our reported results during the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 was the above-mentioned net favorable after-tax impact

of $37.8 million, or $.38 per diluted share, resulting from a reduction to our professional and general liability self-insurance reserves relating years prior to 2013, and an unfavorable after-tax impact of approximately $5.3 million, or $.05 per

diluted share, related to the incentive income and expenses recorded in connection with the implementation of EHR applications.

Acute Care Services Three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

During the second quarter of 2014, at our acute care hospitals owned during both periods ( same facility basis ), adjusted admissions

(adjusted for outpatient activity) increased 3.6% and adjusted patient days increased 7.9%, as compared to the second quarter of 2013. Net revenues at these facilities increased 11.5% during the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the comparable

quarter of the prior year. At these facilities, net revenue per adjusted admission increased 7.7% while net revenue per adjusted patient day increased 3.3% during the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the comparable quarter of 2013. On a same

facility basis, the operating margin at our acute care hospitals increased to 19.2% during the second quarter of 2014 as compared to 14.8% during the second quarter of 2013. We define operating margin as net revenues less salaries, wages and

benefits, other operating expenses and supplies expense (excluding the EHR impact, as indicated on the Supplemental Schedule).

first six months of 2014, at our acute care hospitals on a same facility basis, adjusted admissions increased 1.5% and adjusted patient days increased 6.2%, as compared to the comparable period of 2013. Net revenues at these facilities increased

8.6% during the first six months of 2014 as compared to the comparable period of the prior year. At these facilities, net revenue per adjusted admission increased 7.0% while net revenue per adjusted patient day increased 2.2% during the first six

We provide care to patients who meet certain financial or economic criteria without charge or at amounts substantially less than our

established rates. Because we do not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as charity care, they are not reported in net revenues or in accounts receivable, net. Our acute care hospitals provided charity care and uninsured discounts,

based on gross charges, amounting to approximately $267 million and $258 million during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $586 million and $489 million during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014

and 2013, respectively. The increase in charity care and uninsured discounts during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 was offset by a decrease in the provision for doubtful accounts which amounted to approximately $149 million

and $216 million during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $331 million and $434 million during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. During the three and six-month periods

ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the comparable periods of 2013, our acute care hospitals experienced a decrease in the aggregate of charity care, uninsured discounts and provision for doubtful accounts as a percentage of gross charges.

During the second quarter of 2014, at our behavioral health care facilities on a same facility basis, adjusted admissions increased 4.4% while

General Information, Forward-Looking

Statements and Risk Factors and Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

Universal Health Services, Inc. ( UHS ) is one of the

nation s largest hospital companies, operating acute care and behavioral health hospitals and ambulatory centers nationwide and in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. It acts as the advisor to Universal Health Realty Income Trust, a real

estate investment trust (NYSE:UHT). For additional information on the Company, visit our web site: http://www.uhsinc.com.

This press release contains forward-looking statements based on current management expectations.

Numerous factors, including those disclosed herein, those related to healthcare industry trends and those detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as set forth in Item 1A-Risk Factors and in

Item 7-Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and in Item 2-Forward Looking Statements and Risk Factors in our Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended

March 31, 2014), may cause the results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine our future results are beyond our capability to control or predict. These statements

are subject to risks and uncertainties and therefore actual results may differ materially. Readers should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements which reflect management s view only as of the date hereof. We undertake no

obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, or to make any other forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Our acute care hospitals are eligible for Medicare and Medicaid EHR incentive payments upon implementation of the EHR application, once they

have demonstrated meaningful use of certified EHR technology for the applicable stage or have completed attestations to their adoption or implementation of certified EHR technology. However, there may be timing differences in the recognition of the

incentive income and expenses recorded in connection with the implementation of the EHR application which may cause material period-to-period changes in our future results of operations. Hospitals that do not qualify as a meaningful user of EHR by

2015 are subject to a reduced market basket update to the inpatient prospective payment system standardized amount in 2015 and each subsequent fiscal year. Although we believe that our acute care hospitals will be in compliance with the EHR

standards by 2015, there can be no assurance that all of our facilities will be in compliance and therefore not subject to the penalty provision of the HITECH Act.

We believe that operating income, operating margin, adjusted net income attributable to UHS, adjusted net income attributable to UHS per

diluted share and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ( EBITDA ), which are non-GAAP financial measures ( GAAP is Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America), are helpful
