    You mean the municipality, which you also are a part of, and pay tax to?

    There aren’t very many hospitals or medical facilities owned by municipalities anymore. Most are either owned and operated by a private hospital network, or operate under a private trust.

    The hospital I work at used to be owned by the state via the university, but our governor literally gave the campus away to a private trust that operates for profit. Super fun times.

        Doctors offices are. Hospitals are funded by thr government. Either way paid for by your tax.

        I think we may be talking about two different countries…

        Unless you are American? Things are fucked there

        Ahh, yep. Definitely different countries.
