Here’s something interesting:
Louisiana currently cares for its uninsured and underinsured patients mainly through a statewide network of charity hospitals, the only state in the nation to run a statewide system of public hospitals.
Really? Is that true?
I mean, Mississippi used to have tons of charity hospitals–there was even one in my rinky-dink hometown–and if Mississippi has ’em, you’d think maybe Connecticut had a few… But then, maybe all those have been shuttered, making Louisiana the last state to realize that public hospitals are a losing game….
