They don't share any overhead costs.
In general, the hospital pays for the physical plant and everything within it (with the exception of the doctors, who are not employed by the hospital). The hospital does not pay the doctors anything. The doctors only pay an annual fee (several hundred dollars) for the privilege of working at the hospital. The office costs borne by the doctors are not paid for by the hospital. If the doctor has an office on hospital grounds, monthly rent must be commensurate with rent for any other business in the neighborhood.
