How do you figure that? As best I know Catholic hospitals do not take government monies, just like Catholic schools do not take government monies either.
BTW you seemed misnamed, sound more like an enabler then a shrinker.
I don’t think government should be funding healthcare at all. But the fact is that these hospitals, just like all other full-service private hospitals in the country, get a huge percentage of their revenues directly from Medicare, Medicaid, and state governments. They haven’t shown the slightest interest in giving up those revenue sources, so they have no business whining about the rules that are attached to the money.
