So the question is do the hospital administrators have any idea what healthcare providers actually do on a day to day basis
When it's gonna cost them $81/hour less per nurse, i don't think it's even gonna matter. They'll let someone else will deal with the fallout
Yeah. Everything is a calculated business decision.
They'll look at the laws, the penalties, and do whatever they believe will maximize profit.
Boeing did the same thing when they cut corners and killed over 300 people.
Narrator : A new car built by my company leaves somewhere traveling at 60 mph. The rear differential locks up. The car crashes and burns with everyone trapped inside. Now, should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don't do one.
Woman on Plane : Are there a lot of these kinds of accidents?
Narrator : You wouldn't believe.
Woman on Plane : Which car company do you work for?
Narrator : A major one.

Ford Pinto vibes on this one.
My spouse is an ER doctor here in the US. The answer is no. They don't buy hospitals to take care of patients. They buy them to make a huge profit that the absolute state of the US healthcare system lets them get away with (private medicine and insurance, not the nurses and doctors working within it, to be clear).
The fuckery those assholes invent that adversely effect patient care for the sake of increasing profit margins is wild and infuriating to watch.
