What can I say back to reply to my peer to add to the conversation? Read the scenario about the Green Bay Packers on pages 227-228. In what situations might a stock model be used in healthcare? What restrictions would be placed on the stock and stockholders. I think that it would be tricky for not-for-profit hospitals to have stock options because most of their start up funds come from religious, government, or educational entities, and with that arent allowed to keep any capital with profits going towards services to the poor, educational programs, or charities, in OSF's case they have an option where the sisters will pay for your services if you qualify. I think the only issue stocks and stockholders could be a thing would be like with the Packers they helped them out in 2012 with $67 million in stock going towards Lambeau's expansion, so in giving stock options would help opening new hospitals, or specialized centers. I think the restrictions on the holders would be extremely similar to the packers whereas the holders cant publicly sell their stocks, they don't make decisions, and they don't pay dividends.
