I don't have my stats, I recently finished Drakemor's World with a hospital. It saved me millions of armies. I think it is greatly worth it and upgrading it as quickly as possible. I just got the hospital on the next level and I will post stats when I complete that level

Can't speak to Drakemore's as I haven't played it since Hospitals came out, but I would expect that all levels since the update will have one, just like Merc camps, Markets, Arenas, etc. As for what they do, think this says it best: Hospitals allow you to retain some armies every time you capture a territory. Their effects are doubled when capturing within four territories of the hospital. For example, my current best hospital gives me these benefits: Retain ₳2.2M armies when territory is close, and ₳1.1M when the territory is far away

Here's an obersvation: not all hospitals are created equal. Someone above said it was advisable to upgrade them asap. Hmmm, doesn't really seem like it tbh. My first hospital, now at L5, next upgrade costs 61M. Stats: L5 Retain ₳50K armies when territory is close, and ₳25K when the territory is far away Upgrades To L6 Retain ₳58K armies when territory is close, and ₳29K when the territory is far away
And my most recent hospital, at L1, next upgrade costs 144M. Stats: L1 Retain ₳3.13M armies when territory is close, and ₳1.56M when the territory is far away Upgrades To L2 Retain ₳4.69M armies when territory is close, and ₳2.35M when the territory is far away
So 61M for a 4K savings per captured territory, or 144M for 790K savings per captured territory. For just over double, get over 100x the benefits. And that's after 4 upgrades to get the first one to L5 ... so kind of want my money back for those upgrades, LOL. Especially with the 2 hr upgrade for hospitals, upgrading the first few doesn't really seem to make sense. Essentially, if you're going ot spend money on upgrading a hospital, you should also stop capturing until the hospital is ready, but the value from upgrading the early ones just doesn't seem to be there tbh. So hold out for those later ones. They're still a decent bonus in the early game, just don't waste money on them when you could put it into market items, or upgrade for army camps or mines.

sorry to interfere... Actually L1 /L2 /L5 etc nearby the army camps or mines means it has been upgraded 1, 2 or 5 times ?
also what does it mean to "retain some armies " and how many armies ? fixed number or % of armies used to conquer a territory ?
i havent seen any hospital for now. i am playing on the Japan map and it is not finish yet maybe in higher levels will i meet them.
thanks to all of you for your help.
also, can someone explain me how conquer a territory valued 200M when you income rate is at 5.5K ? and next army upgrade needs more of W1.5M, ust to get a very low increase, there is something i dont get here.

The 'L' next to the army camps and mines are those buildings' levels. All upgradable buildings start at level 1 or L1. So if you upgrade a building 5 times, it will say L6, meaning level 6.
As for "Retain some armies," it means when you don't lose some of your armies when you claim a territory. So, if you own a hospital that 'retains' 5M armies, that's 5M armies that don't get spent when conquering a territory.
Now, I too haven't seen any hospitals, so I don't know if the hospitals get applied before or after the Joint Strike advancement, or if it even matters the order, since joint strike keeps a percentage, not a fixed amount liked the hospitals from what I'm gathering above. The reason is because you and I were still in a level when the update happened, and according the update logs that Fizzer posts, any and all map updates that happen while still in a level get applied once you start a new level. Meaning once you and I finish our current levels, we will see the hospitals on the next levels we start.
And about the 200M territory on a 5.5K income. Unless you have any unpurchased mercenaries and/or ways to get money easily to upgrade you army camps, you're going to have to either accept waiting the 10 hours it will take for your army count to get to 200M, or try to get every army draft the moment they appear, which could decrease that time to about 1-2 hours depending on how much the drafts are worth.

I think they do, I don't have any hard numbers.
I am in Peloponnesian War and I have a hospital in Lesbos and Pergammon. They are maxed at L3 302k/151k and L1 2.06M/1.03M. I have just 5 territories left to capture and I saved 102.3161M armies due to hospitals.
That is out of 430.+M armies earned.
I try to locate the hospitals as quickly as possible,

Agree Krinid is correct on the math.
Hospitals are well worth it and initial upgrades are very helpful but the price scales unreasonably for the benefit as you continue to upgrade.

thank you I see when you say "mov", you mean conquering a territory, right ?
using/chnaging smelters of crafters is not considered as a "move" am i right ?

Started this level:3 days 19 hours agoSession age:3 days 14 hours And my Hospital stats are: near far (K) (K) hosp 1 50 25 hosp 2 427 213 hosp 3 4400 2200 hosp 4 6260 3130 hosp 5 5020 2510 TOTAL 16157 8078 I honestly didn't expect the hospital bonus to add up this quickly ... but somehow it's already saved me ₳1.257B units. Ok, I'm a hospital fan. Would like to see the impact they have on the longer levels now.

I agree, hospitals are great. The coolest effect that I've found, is that if you can do some exploring and find one early on, you'll be able to use them to conquer a lot of territories without losing any armies at all. I decided to start redoing some levels for AP and went back to floating rocks, started pushing hard early towards the second army camp (it's a bonus reward, so I could see it) and stumbled across a hospital there, and then I basically used the hospital to capture almost all the other territories around me without losing any armies. So my strategy with hospitals is, if you see one, don't attack anything at all until you can capture it.
It does seem like it's a bit pointless to keep upgrading them, they get very expensive fast for a relatively small benefit after the first or second upgrade, so I think it's best to invest in camps/mines/mercs/etc and just keep looking for the next hospital which will have a much higher level. That's been my experience from playing some of the lower levels, at least.
Edit: For this level (I'm about halfway done) with just one hospital (101k-202k) it's saved me 2.6m, with 1.6 from camps, 1.5 from caches, 318k from JS (13%) and 684k mercs, so it's a gigantic benefit.
