For-profit hospitals are privately owned to make a profit. CMS records two such ownership types: "Proprietary" (investor-owned companies and other private owners) and "Physician" (owned by physicians); both are listed here. Nonprofit hospitals are run by charitable organizations, and government hospitals by a city, county, state or hospital district. Ownership type isn't a measure of quality, so compare each hospital's own Medicare results.
