UNIVERSAL HEALTH SERVICES, INC. REPORTS

2015 FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

Consolidated Results of Operations, As Reported and As Adjusted Three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

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

$174.3 million, or $1.73 per diluted share, during the first quarter of 2015 as compared to $138.1 million, or $1.38 per diluted share, during the comparable quarter of 2014. Net revenues increased 14.8% to $2.23 billion during the first quarter of

2015 as compared to $1.94 billion during the first quarter of 2014.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, 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 31% to $179.5 million, or $1.78 per diluted

share, as compared to $136.7 million, or $1.36 per diluted share, during the first quarter of 2014.

As reflected on the Supplemental

Schedule, included in our reported results during the first quarter of 2015 is a net unfavorable after-tax impact of approximately $5.2 million, or $.05 per diluted share, related to the depreciation and amortization expense recorded in connection

with the implementation of electronic health records ( EHR ) applications at our acute care hospitals.

Supplemental Schedule, included in our reported results during the first quarter of 2014 was an aggregate net favorable after-tax impact of approximately $1.4 million, or $.02 per diluted share, consisting of: (i) a favorable after-tax impact

of $6.3 million, or $.07 per diluted share, resulting from a gain realized on the sale of a non-operating investment, and; (ii) a net unfavorable after-tax impact of approximately $4.9 million, or $.05 per diluted share, related to the

incentive income and depreciation and amortization expense recorded in connection with the implementation of EHR applications.

Three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

During the first quarter of 2015, at our acute care hospitals owned

during both periods ( same facility basis ), adjusted admissions (adjusted for outpatient activity) increased 5.7% and adjusted patient days increased 7.5%, as compared to the first quarter of 2014. Net revenues at these facilities

increased 12.2% during the first quarter of 2015 as compared to the comparable quarter of the prior year. At these facilities, net revenue per adjusted admission increased 6.1% while net revenue per adjusted patient day increased 4.4% during the

first quarter of 2015 as compared to the comparable quarter of 2014. On a same facility basis, the operating margin at our acute care hospitals increased to 21.6%

during the first quarter of 2015 as compared to 19.2% during the first quarter of 2014. We define operating margin as net revenues less salaries, wages and benefits, other operating expenses and

supplies expense (excluding the impact of EHR and other items as indicated on the Supplemental Schedules).

The increased operating

performance experienced at our acute care facilities during the first quarter of 2015, as compared to the comparable quarter in 2014, was due in part to continued improvement in general economic conditions as well as a decrease in the number of

uninsured patients treated at our hospitals. The decrease in the number of uninsured patients treated at our acute care hospitals was due primarily to the favorable impact of the Affordable Care Act which includes the expansion of Medicaid in

certain states in which we operate and the enrollment of patients in newly created commercial exchanges.

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 $287 million and $320 million during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014,

respectively. The provision for doubtful accounts at our acute care hospitals decreased to approximately $124 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 as compared to $182 million during the comparable quarter of 2014. During

the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, as compared to the comparable period of 2014, our acute care hospitals experienced a decrease in the aggregate of charity care, uninsured discounts and provision for doubtful accounts as a percentage

Behavioral Health Care Services Three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

During the first quarter of 2015, at our behavioral health care facilities on a same facility basis, adjusted admissions increased 6.0% while

adjusted patient days increased 2.6% as compared to the first quarter of 2014. At these facilities, net revenue per adjusted admission increased 0.4% while net revenue per adjusted patient day increased 3.7% during the first quarter of 2015 as

compared to the comparable quarter in 2014. On a same facility basis, our behavioral health services net revenues increased 6.3% during the first quarter of 2015, as compared to the comparable quarter in 2014, and the operating margins were

28.6% and 27.7% during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

we may spend up to $400 million to purchase shares of our Class B Common Stock on the open market or in negotiated private transactions. In conjunction with this program, during the first quarter of 2015, we repurchased 48,269 shares at an aggregate

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 through its subsidiaries

acute care hospitals, behavioral health facilities and ambulatory centers located throughout the United States, the United Kingdom, 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.

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,

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.

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

to our investors as measures of our operating performance. In addition, we believe that, when applicable, comparing and discussing our financial results based on these measures, as calculated, is helpful to our investors since it neutralizes the

effect in each year of material items that are nonrecurring or non-operational in nature including items such as, but not limited to, costs related to extinguishment of debt, gains on sales of assets and businesses, reserves for settlements, legal

judgments and lawsuits, impairments of long-lived assets and other amounts that may be reflected in the current or prior year financial statements that relate to prior periods. To obtain a complete understanding of our financial performance these

measures should be examined in connection with net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in this report or in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange

Commission including our Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Since the items included or excluded from these measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance under GAAP, these

measures should not be considered to be alternatives to net income as a measure of our operating performance or profitability. Since these measures, as presented, are not determined in accordance with GAAP and are thus susceptible to varying

calculations, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Investors are encouraged to use GAAP measures when evaluating our financial performance.

We incur health-care related taxes ( Provider Taxes ) imposed by states in the form of

a licensing fee, assessment or other mandatory payment which are related to: (i) healthcare items or services; (ii) the provision of, or the authority to provide, the health care items or services, or; (iii) the payment for the health

care items or services. Such Provider Taxes are subject to various federal regulations that limit the scope and amount of the taxes that can be levied by states in order to secure federal matching funds as part of their respective state Medicaid

programs. We derive a related Medicaid reimbursement benefit from assessed Provider Taxes in the form of Medicaid claims based payment increases and/or lump sum Medicaid supplemental payments. Under these programs, including the impact of

uncompensated care and upper payment limit programs, we earned revenues (before Provider Tax assessments) of approximately $66 million and $49 million during the three-months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. These revenues were

offset by assessments of $28 million during the first quarter of 2015 and $18 million during the first quarter of 2014, which are recorded in other operating expenses on the attached Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. Prior to 2015, these

assessments were recorded as a reduction to our net revenues. Accordingly, to conform with current year presentation, these assessments were reclassified on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the three-months ended March 31,

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. Pursuant to regulations, 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. We believe that all of our acute care hospitals

have met the applicable meaningful use criteria and therefore are not subject to a reduced market basked update to the inpatient prospective payment standardized amount in federal fiscal year 2015. Under the HITECH Act, hospitals must continue to

meet the applicable meaningful use criteria in each fiscal year or they will be subject to a market basket update reduction in a subsequent fiscal year.
