Introduction: Controversies in Healthcare Philanthropy
Healthcare philanthropy is concerned with providing medical services to those in need and addressing the faults of privatized care; these initiatives are taken through foundations, medical charities, and nonprofit hospitals. Chapter 3 will discuss three main controversies in this sector of philanthropy:
1) Whether or not nonprofit hospitals are entitled to keep their tax-exempt status
2) Ethical dilemmas in fundraising
3) Racial / socioeconomic disparities in healthcare that require more philanthropic action
