How so? "Universal healthcare" just mean everybody has healthcare. It doesn't mean it has to be provided by, or be paid for by the government. Several European countries (eg. Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands) all have universal healthcare that's at least somewhat privately funded.

Because universal healthcare is not a thing in the US, and this article is specifically referencing US hospitals.

The original comment seems to be referencing the fact that's it's a private enterprise, rather than the lack of universal healthcare in the US.

>[...] for a private healthcare enterprise.

It's also about the lack of universal healthcare. It's a private enterprise that does not even aim to provide universal (as in "for everyone") health services.
