To get this info *out* of OSM you could use XAPI. A query like <http://xapi.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/*[amenity=hospital]> might work. The wiki has more xapi documentation at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Xapi which might help. You should be warned that xapi is at times slow and outdated. You might also need to query building=hospital depending on how people have tagged hospitals.
