There is plenty of evidence that Hospitals, Nursing Homes operated by private equity have way more worse outcomes than those of other operators, even for-profit ones

Yes. It starts benign "no major changes!" and soon stock is reduced, staff get cut, and cost cutting rules are enacted by people who never have to witness the effects on the patients who slip into worse outcomes. And if it crashes into the ground they can float away on golden parachutes.
