      Then maybe get that surgery you’ve been putting off NOW. Before January.

      I’m listing each medical institution I’ve worked with and associated with in the back of my brain and the only locations that come to mind as not non-profit are university hospitals. Most hospitals work the non profit angle. I encourage you to Google your 3 closest hospital systems and see what you come up with regarding non profit status.

      The university hospital issue strikes me as something we should all be considering right now, the contribution of university hospitals in practical hands on research via the educational half of their institutions. Many an experimental or top line not available elsewhere medical treatment is found at a university hospital. The other piece of university hospitals is they are magnets for degreed talent, including doctors, mid-levels, and nurses.

      If anything, I see him leveraging on it, like using section 230 to make YouTube not moderate anything.

          Depends. Knee replacement is one where you typically decide when, and it can be life changing. Gastric bypass. Shoulder replacement. Maybe that lumbar discectomy to potentially solve back pain. Movement altering lipoma removal.
