I agree with you that more competition is a good thing, but I don't think you can say that hospitals have a different moral vector than drug companies. Hospitals are as much huge corporations trying to please stockholders as big pharma is, they just happen to have people working for them who have a different moral vector. But I wouldn't put much hope in hospitals making a huge investment like this for the good of their patients
