Hospitals in the US

Hello,

I'm currently writing a term paper about hospitals in the US and CEO
compensation. Unfortunately I'm from Germany, so I have no immediate
experience with the US hospital system and I find it very difficult to find
information about it.
So there are public, nonprofit and for-profit hospitals; district hospitals
are public hospitals which are located primarily in rural areas. They have
the right to levy special taxes and the board of directors is elected by
residents of the district. But what about the other public hospitals? They
are financed by general taxes? Are there elections for the board of
directors as well or are they appointed?

And in this overview:

where are the discrict hospitals?

Thanks in advance for your support!
