The debt wouldn't go with the hospital when sold individually so it's irrelevant.
Any sale of Healthscope as a whole to a third party would either elimate the debt or knock it off the purchase price when sold. Either way Healthscope would be on a level playing with all the other private hospitals.
All this assumes that Brookfield would want out of course but that was just my speculative opinion, it may not happen. Brookfield could choose to recapitalise Healthscope instead.
