In for-profit, nonprofit hospital models, differences might be subtle - News - The Times-Tribune

In for-profit, nonprofit hospital models, differences might be subtle - News - The Times-Tribune: "Don't expect many obvious differences between a for-profit hospital and a nonprofit hospital. Any distinctions may be subtle.

For-profit Community Health Systems Inc. will acquire Moses Taylor Hospital on the heels of its Mercy Hospital buy. Community Medical Center will be acquired by nonprofit Geisinger Health System.

Both have pledged to renovate the hospitals, to clamp the flow of red ink and improve the level of care."
