[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that the biggest drain on Howard finacially is the hospital. That is a loss leader almost every year. I know that there is prestige in having a med school and a teaching hospital, but think of the resources that it takes to run a full service hospital with a traditionally low SES patient base. [/quote]DC General and Greater Southeast Hospital have closed. So, where else would you have the poor go? Howard Hospital serves those who nobody else will or are reluctant to do so. It has nothing to do with 'prestige' as you put it. Unfortunately, the less prestigious poor can't pay so Howard suffers.[/quote]
