Having worked in hospitals, county hospitals, private profit hospitals, and non profit hospitals, I can tell you that the emergency departments get over run frequently and often have patients in the halls on gurneys. The word goes out to discharge in-patients so that new ones can fill the beds. Yes, they like to keep available beds filled. The number of beds available also depends on the number of available staff and the number can fluctuate quite a bit. In the covid-19 era they hype the numbers with fraudulent tests, and admits for other reasons become a covid-19 statistic. It is a hoax.
