Reimbursement to hospitals is crappy. The government keeps piling on regulations, the economy piles on supply price increases, demand piles on wage increases and reimbursement doesn't increase. Many hospitals were operating on a 1% profit margin pre Covid. TikiSkip you know that would never work at a restaurant. And now, post Covid, many hospitals are operating at a loss. The hospital in the next town over from me only has enough operating capital to make payroll for the next two weeks then what, bankruptcy? Last week they closed their OB and Peds departments because they were losing more money than the rest of the hospital and send those patients to us. Then people treat the ER like it's their personal doctor's office because they don't need an appointment and they don't have a copay. Plugs up the ERs TIKIGIKI great pics of great plants! There are a couple of gardening threads that you can add those to. one called Tropical Gardens with Hardy Plants. https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic_id=13231&start=0 and one called Backyard Jungles https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic_id=25166&post_id=324391&start=0#post-324391 [ Edited by MadDogMike on 2023-01-17 10:21:12 ]
