For private companies, there may be less detailed company information available in general, because private companies are not required to disclose the same information as public companies. You may want to do a web search for your company and if they have a website, some of the company information you seek may be included on their website. In addition to looking at their websites, consider searching the SEC EDGAR, Mergent Intellect, and Nexis Uni databases. Nexis Uni is a great source for both company information and news stories. 

If you are struggling to find information on your chosen hospital, you may also want to search Mergent Archives database. In addition, you could do a web search for your company name + SEC or 10K. For example

LHP Hospital Partners AND SEC

IASIS Healthcare AND 10K

The results may include SEC filings that contain detailed information for the company.
