when you adjust for population they aren't

Even that's not the "best" way to compare. To get a valid indicator you'd have to do it per hospital admittance or per hospital days and maybe even adjust for the severity of the reasons for hospitalizations. <g>

The notion that a simple, single number informs the question is risible.
