What changed so that hospitals are closing in the first place?
Rural hospitals aren’t as profitable, so privately held hospitals have been closing so the company can invest money where they make more money per dollar spent.
That’s usually the answer, but it also begs the question why aren’t they as profitable as they used to be?
