Wait, I previously replied too submissively.

Yes, that is corruption. However, it is being punished!

If a for profit insurance/hospital group does this in the USA, taking money from patient care to profit... there is no punishment. There is encouragement. Correct?

The point is that both for- and not-for-profit systems can be exploitative and often are. And not-for-profits have extra avenues for exploitation.

> Yes, that is corruption. However, it is being punished!

In the example I shared, the evidence suggests that the punishment, as you call it, has not been adequate to solve the problem. And that problem has been ongoing for a decade and a half. And still continues.
