Actually, I don’t hear hospitals complain about illegals that much.

EMTALA overall seems like mandating humane behavior but it exists no where else in the world, even with socialized care.

Most folks say they will let you die, unless you produce your gov. care card.

Maybe they silently close Emergency rooms, or go out of business completely?

- from this article:

"Many eat losses and eventually go out of business like they're doing in droves in California, which has seen 85 hospital closures in the last decade. An additional 55 facilities have shut down ERs. The state ranks last in the country in access to emergency care and last in ERs per capita, making it woefully unprepared to respond to a major earthquake or terror attack."
