Italian term

FBF

Italian to English Bus/Financial Medical (general)
This is from a table with hospitals/facilities and locations. I don't have any context. FBF is the only information in the facility cell. I've found a few mentions of FBF online in Italian, but nothing spelled out.

Thanks!

Fatebenefratelli

May be the name of the hospital? In Italy we have this important "Azienda ospedaliera" which runs hospitals in many Italian regions.

Their Internet site also contains this abbreviation in its URL

http://www.fbf.milano.it/

Hope this helps
Note from asker:
Yes! That makes perfect sense. Fatebenefratelli came up several times already, but never as an abbreviation. Thanks a lot!
