They used to admit you to the hospital for surgery or broken bones and such in order to manage infection and pain.

Now they just give you four million ML's of six antibiotics in your butt and in your IV, and a pat on the ass to boot you out the door and leave it up to you to make sure your sutures don't blow open.

They get a bonus from your insurance carrier to not admit you. Now the only exception is if you get hurt on the job. Then you get the best care available. Pain management, every other hour fluids intake and output monitoring, temperature checks, blood pressure, wound or incision checks, and a call button.

People get addicted to opioids because you used to need to be under medical supervision while on them.
