For hospitals which really are non-profit a) the non-profit status doesn't prevent price gouging b) even if acting as a traditional non-proft, they may do so to balance revenue against people with no insurance and no ability to pay. (a burden we load onto hospitals that we should actually be sharing much more explictly and universally across our nation).
