Step 1: Read the prompt below.
People have contrasting opinions regarding the future of hospitals. Some people argue that hospitals are expanding while saving lives, investing in technology and being profitable. On the other hand, others believe that the current hospital system will soon grow obsolete. They believe that with the collapse of healthcare, the Medicare and Medicaid restrictions and the prevalence of walk in clinics and urgent care centers, hospitals will draw from a smaller pool of patients, thus negatively affecting its profit.
Prompt: What do you think is the future of hospitals?
