I would argue that hospitals and other public settings are actually more in need of higher privacy in electronic communications.
Imagine a physician working on, say, Scarlett Johansson's health issues; he periodically sends this data to the specialist that will run some test, and a creepy sysadmin finds out. Should he be able to MITM those comms, and resell the info to newspapers (or worse)...? Nope; the physician should have perfect privacy from network operators.
