Many Hospitals Are Expanding, But Some Critics Ask Why

By David Darman on Monday, August 4, 2008.

Nearly twenty hospitals in New Hampshire are undertaking multi-million dollar additions or renovations.

In a few cases, the construction is the first modernization in decades.

But in most instances, the renovations are directed at making changes in patient care and to handle a growing number of patient visits.

Still, as New Hampshire Public Radio’s David Darman reports, some analysts say there’s a kind of profit motive behind the construction.
