A not-for-profit hospital has a 501(c)(3) designation from the IRS, which means, for tax purposes, it is recognized as a not-for-profit organization exempt from Federal income taxes. It does not mean the entity can not earn a profit, it just means it is not liable for payment of income taxes. The not-for-profit entity also has no shareholders and pays no dividends.
