  • It's not just Indiana. It's literally everywhere in the country.

    Hospital "groups" (cartels) are a fkin plague.

    They build or buy the biggest hospital around. Then buy up all the smaller clinics and whatnot. Close them and funnel all the Healthcare traffic through a handful of hospitals that are ran on skeleton crews. Nurses are overworked. Rural folks are just completely screwed.

    Private Equity doing what Private Equity does.
