Hospitals do receive money in return for the priveledge of providing free
formula, water, pacifiers, etc. and for the giving out of gift bags. The
money does NOT go to any doctors!!!! Doctors are almost never hospital
employees and the contracts are with the hospitals, not the doctors. The
money usually goes into nursing education funds or special projects (we
needed a research nurse to collect statistics, so they paid for that - over
my objections).
