The article is intended towards the conservative population of America. The author tells us that smaller, more monolithic community hospitals are more "cost efficient and patient-satisfying". I agree with the author because physician owned hospitals will be more responsive and less bureaucratic. The author provides evidence of his idea when he tells us that a very well re-known doctor herself, named Mundy, said "new measurement showed that doctor-owned facilities...and patient satisfaction"(7th paragraph). This tells us that doctors themselves believe that they will do better work when they own their own facility.
These facilities will focus their entire time researching specific treatments of specific injuries. This will help people better understand their injury because they will be talking to very experienced and knowledgeable doctors.
Physician owners have started getting into the hospital business to treat more effectively and also cost-efficiently. Patients will not have to pay more when they go to smaller and more specific hospitals rather than bigger hospitals because they won't have to go trough too many tests and surveilences.
If monolithic hospitals are opened, doctors will know exactly what's wrong with the patient as they get more time to diagnose the patient. This gives them more efficiency during the operation.
