. . .there is NO hospital that will turn away a patient whether they have insurance or not.

True. But after they admit him, then they will bill him for the full price of his treatment. All the doctors who treated him at the hospital (even those he never saw, like the pathologist, the radiologist, and the CRNA) will send him ginormous bills too. And if he can't pay them they will all take him to court and obtain a six-figure judgment against him. Of course, if he has a pre-existing condition he might not have been able to obtain health insurance at any price prior to this disaster, and he certainly won't be able to afterward.

I don't want national health care, I don't even want those working in the union pigsties, or off the government teat to acknowledge that many cant afford insurance in a single group.

All I want is for everyone to be charged the exact same price for every treatment.

Rich, poor, insured or not, ever bill at the hospital should be exactly the same.
