The good thing is that my local hospital system (Northwell Health, formerly known as Long Island Jewish / North Shore Hospital) has better sense than that overall; they partner with Au Bon Pan, and also stock their "candy" machines with healthy options like tuna kits and protein packs.
(The bad thing is that they occasionally take it too far, by dint of not realizing how individuals' needs might not be what's expected. Case in point: they only have diet soda on campus, for sale or otherwise. So if you're in the ER with a loved one, and can't have diet soda or coffee--as is the case with MANY people I know--you're screwed if you rely on caffeine to stay awake.)
