(Bloomberg) -- Shares of the three biggest publicly traded hospital companies rose Monday after the government said that about 6 million people have signed up for Obamacare, also known as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, coverage for next year on U.S.-run markets.
It's a good sign after concerns that the industry’s benefit from the program was shrinking.
Tenet Healthcare Corp. gained 8.9 percent to $29.86 at 11:57 a.m. in New York, after earlier rising 10 percent in the biggest intraday gain since June 25.
