It would be helpful to post any existing  or proposed data models and
thoughts toward tagging of hospital operational status here:

What do you think of this suggestion folks ?
 
I haven't taken the time to see whether this use of the database to
forward help requests is mentioned anywhere on OSM wiki.
      

Well, OSM was never designed as a note-passing platform. OSM is meant to
represent the physical features of a base map, i.e. "what's on the ground
right now".
    

 
I always wondered if those hospitals on the OSM main map for Haiti was
really up an running. Is it really an amenity=hospital of no patients
can go there?
  

Erik,

If you want to see what's inside some of them, you can have a look there
(French NGOs) :

(I am trying to get in touch with them)
