Scott orders study of abolishing public hospitals
Former corporate hospital executive seeks 'more rational' approach to paying hospitals for care of the uninsured

Gov. Rick Scott, a former executive of corporate hospitals, on Wednesday ordered a yearlong study of whether Florida could do away with government-owned hospitals such as the nine in Broward County and financially ailing Jackson Memorial in Miami.

Scott set up a commission to report by Jan. 1 if the state could save money and provide better health care if privately owned and nonprofit hospitals took over caring for the uninsured and poor people, a role that public hospitals mostly shoulder.
