Dandy the application you used must follow the strict requirements in article 517, "health care facilities", specifically 517-30(c)(1) which would indicate the circuit you called #3 not be for the receptacles in the patients room designated as a life safet branch circuit or part of the emergency system. Logic is a big part of deciding what will be feed by a multiwire circuit. I'm glad my last post left me some wiggle room to see that it is not always good to have a common trip breaker but I feel it is always essential to have a qualified person (as discussed in another thread) work on the installation and maintenance of multiwire circuits and in fact all electrical systems.
