Boston-based Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, which in March warned it was on track to lose $20 million for the 2009 fiscal year, instead managed to post a $10.3 million operating gain for 2009. The gain for the 12 months that ended Sept. 30 represents a turnaround for the 620-bed hospital. Last winter, it laid off about 70 workers, consolidated research operations, and made other cuts to stabilize finances, the Boston Globe reports.
