Advocate Health has the largest market share in the Chicago Metropolitan area, coming in at 13.6%.
In comparison, not-for-profit The University of Chicago Hospitals-where Michelle Obama works has only a 2.2% share.
As we just reported, for the 12 months of their fiscal year 2007, not-for-profit Advocate Health made $259,938,000 in profits.
For the first 6 months of their FY08, not-for-profit The University of Chicago Hospitals has already reported making $118,724,000 in profits.
Market share isn’t all it’s cut out to be if you have the right kind of patients.

Why? Because she’s an OBAMA. Enough said.
As my older brother once told me, if something is screwed up then you can bet that it’s that way because people are making lots of money off it.
Because she is a liberal socialist.
ear muffs or pig snouts??? something like that?
nono no pork belly spending?!
A not-for-profit can make a profit. They are not forbidden from making money. The difference between a for profit and a not for profit is that the not for profit does not have shareholders or investors to pay out. They can still make money (profit) for infrastructure improvents, invest in new technologies and hire new staff.
Who cares? She is not running for president.
If your asking whether a non-profit can actually make money, it proves we need to look at our education system. Seriously, did you go to high school?
Because non profit hospitals have done very very well for her.
