But some say the city has benefited from special circumstances that may not last much longer.

Dwindling revenue sharing money and the recession's downward pressure on tax receipts are forcing state and local governments to take a scalpel, or in some cases an ax, to their direct subsidies to hospitals.

Officials believe those services often can be provided more cost-effectively in the private sector, a solution that's preferable to reducing services or raising taxes.
