Update: Yesterday, the Senate Finance Committee, of which Senator Grassley is a member, released policy options for financing the reform of America's health care system. In that document, the committee calls for a changes in the rules that establish hospitals as nonprofit. Here's an excerpt:
"Under the policy options, non‐profit hospitals would be required to maintain a minimal level of charitable activity, limit charges to uninsured, indigent patients, and limit aggressive collection actions. Hospitals that do not meet those requirements would be subject to an excise tax."
