<p>Yes, you are wrong. Hospitals can raise a gazillion dollars in donations to fund buildings and new equipment. (How do you think Geffen got his name on the building? Even hallways become “named hallways”, i.e., partially funded by donors who can put a plaque on the wall.) Hospitals also recieve a gazillion dollars in revenue from the State and feds and attempt to be self-supporting.</p>
