What I find thoroughly wrong is that when a Catholic hospital conglomerate merges with a secular hospital, the Catholic hospital gets to set the rules about care. And they're buying up a LOT of hospitals. I go to a hospital for medical care, not religion.

Here's a case where religion led to negligent care (no, it's not the Irish lady that hospital killed; American hospital this time):

And an article from 2012 about Catholic hospitals reducing care for women:

i wonder if anyone would know what was going on if he just went on and did the thing while 'in there'?
