This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

You're assuming that public hospitals are well enough funded to use discretionary funding in this way. Even the best health systems do not carry a surplus.

It literally saves the hospital money.

It's clearer as time goes on that you have no experience with public sector funding. You're just being contrary for its own sake.

Literally costs negative money.
