Here’s industry wide stats for hospitals: https://www.chartis.com/insights/hospital-margins-trend-high.... Median hospital operating margin is 1.5% in 2024. Even among the top 50 systems, the median is 2.3%. https://hospitalogy.com/articles/2025-05-29/top-50-health-sy...

The median US hospital is also a nonprofit; indeed, more than half are. I fail to see how focusing on this opaque median measure tells us anything meaningful.

Care to speculate on the trends I pointed out? I simply don't see how compensation for doctors is the problem.
