I don't know about hospitals, but several dentists I've used a

by the time I get around to thawing out my roll and sheet film,
they won't have anyplace left to process the film, especially the 8
x 10 and 4 x 5. Can do it myself, of course, as I still have the
gear to tank dip sheets, and a drum roller that I've never used,
but could. But will I?
Our hospital X-ray machines are digital. For a few dollars they were
able to print me a large transparency of my broken collar bone :)
When I was having my leg looked at earlier this year the doc was able
to bring up the X-ray on his computer screen despite it having been
taken at another facility across town.

VA hospitals in the U.S. are frequently at the bottom of the list when
it comes to funding.
VA = Veterans Administration for those who do not have to deal with U.S.
health care.
