82 rural hospitals have closed in the last year

non-profit does not mean it can't make money.

The buyer takes higher paying conditions and ships those patients to its main facility. Typically that is orthopedic and coronary patients.

Can't make a profit. Show us how many of our hospitals are non-profit facilities?

How does a corporation save anything by moving a patient from one of their facilities to another and how does that diminish the care of the patient if the larger facility has better facilities to treat that particular issue?

Did we ever figure out why the hospitals closed ?
