Definition:
Hospitals are licensed facilities that provide a variety of medical and surgical services, some of which are also provided by other facilities. A distinguishing characteristic of hospitals is “inpatient care,” which refers to services where patients are admitted to a hospital to stay overnight for closer monitoring.

This market includes general hospitals, psychiatric hospitals, and specialist hospitals, which provide various services to patients, ranging from diagnostics, medical and surgical treatments, nursing and specialized accommodation to other medical services. Depending on the specific legal regulations, the medical services provided by hospitals can vary greatly from country to country. Long-term care facilities, ambulatory care providers, and medical retailers are excluded from this market.

Structure:
The Hospitals market is divided into three categories: Inpatient Care, Outpatient Care, and Other Hospital Services. Inpatient Care comprises all the medical and surgical services that are provided to patients who are admitted to a hospital for an overnight stay. Outpatient Care covers all medical and surgical services that are provided to patients without having to spend the night in a hospital. Other Hospital Services includes hospital services that are provided outside of a basic hospital setting, e.g., day-care, long-term care, and home-based care.

    U.S. Hospitals - Statistics & Facts

    The healthcare landscape in the United States is a complicated one. There are federal health insurance plans for low-income individuals namely Medicaid and CHIP (Children’s health insurance program) and Medicare for seniors and the disabled. Aside from these, people must buy private health insurance or be left uninsured because the U.S. is the only high-income country without universal healthcare coverage. Hospitals in the U.S., therefore, receive payment from multiple payers. Most revenue generated by U.S. hospitals comes from private insurance, self, or other payments. The complexity of this multi-payer system is instrumental to the U.S. having the highest administrative health costs per capita among wealthy nations.
