The disposal fees charged by hospitals are for the collection, storage, transportation and disposal of medical waste, which are business service fees. These charges are approved by the local price bureau, not the hospital's own pricing decisions. Hospitals, as non-profit organizations, derive their income mainly from state appropriations and fees charged to patients for medical services. Disposal of medical waste requires specialized equipment and technology, and compliance with relevant environmental protection and health and safety regulations. Hospitals charge disposal fees to cover these costs and to ensure that medical waste is properly handled to protect the environment and public health. Such a fee is reasonable and serves to maintain the normal operation of the hospital and the provision of high quality healthcare services.
