Pittsburgh-based UPMC reported higher revenue in the first nine months of 2018 than in the same period a year earlier.

Here are four things to know:

1. UPMC reported revenue of $13.9 billion in the first nine months of this year, up from $11.4 billion in the same period of 2017.

2. The revenue boost was largely attributable to patient volume growth and higher enrollment in the system's health insurance plan. As of Sept. 30, UPMC's health plan had 3.4 million members.

3. After factoring in expenses, UPMC ended the first nine months of 2018 with operating income of $190 million, down from $196 million in the same period of 2017.
