Last month, the AHA released its annual list of closed acute-care hospitals. The report showed that the number of closings dropped to 45 hospitals in 1991 from 50 hospitals in the previous year, continuing a downward trend. A MODERN HEALTHCARE special report takes a look at last year's shuttered facilities and also identifies some noteworthy correlations among the rates of hospital closures, mergers and profits.
