Washington AP reports a government shift on Hill Burton charity care, retreating from a planned 5 percent of operating costs or 25 percent of net income rule toward a three percent free care mandate or zero percent of original loan. The change aims to limit free care to facilities tied to the original loan period, affecting thousands of Hill-Burton funded hospitals and provoking opposition from hospital groups and poverty lawyers.
