    • To assess the need for greater public scrutiny of such healthcare collaborations.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of hospital partnership trends.
    • Review of cases where no community foundation was created.
    • Discussion of governance and accountability in healthcare joint ventures.

    Main Results:

    • Some hospital joint ventures lack dedicated foundations for continued charitable work.
    • The financial and community impact of these partnerships varies.
    • Questions arise regarding the transparency and oversight of these arrangements.

    Conclusions:

    • Joint ventures between not-for-profit and for-profit healthcare entities warrant careful consideration.
    • The establishment of foundations is crucial for ensuring continued community benefit.
    • Increased public scrutiny may be necessary to safeguard the missions of not-for-profit hospitals.
