tbh, my experience is the other way around. When a hospital locally ran out of money and was taken over by the county, the quality of care dropped drastically.

My wife had a good experience giving birth in our local hospital 12 years ago, but this year, after having been taken over, they completely screwed her brain up in what should have been a routine procedure. 10 months later and she’s still suffering. i’m not sure she’ll ever recover :(
- michaelmrose 3y agoFirst let me say I'm sorry for your wife and I hope she recovers. Respectfully that hospital may not be an apt comparison because it was taken over because it was already failing under private ownership whereas PE is more apt to buy something because it is functional and therefore profitable. It seems likely that both causes are an example of failure of private ownership wherein the county is being blamed only because it was left holding the bag.
