Description Fifty New York hospitals, 25 urban facilities and 25 rural facilities, were chosen at random for analysis.  They were examined to determine whether non-operating revenue – contributions, gifts, grants (as defined by IRS, Form 990) – plays an important role in fiscal viability .  Three years of data, 2005 – 2007, for each hospital was selected, and several financial variables were used to construct a fiscal viability index. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a positive difference in the fiscal health of hospitals when the hospitals can solicit more income from non-healthcare/non-operating activities in the form of outside gifts and grants.  Another main purpose of this study was to determine which hospital sector, if any – urban vs. rural – is more dependent upon non-operating revenues for their fiscal viability.
