Apparently the truth challenged administration is willing to give up what little credibility they have left.

It’s a federal law that any emergency room in the country must treat you, regardless of rather you can afford it or not. Not sure if the law applies to the university hospital Michelle worked at though.

But I do know it’s true in my county.

Did Cavuto ask Steve how many will die per month WITH Obama care because they are denied treatment or because the OK to give them treatment got hung up in committee over a long week end and they died waiting on bureaucrats to help them.--It would be one huge multiplier of 1500--how about 15,000? If Steve can pick a number, I can pick a bigger one.

As stated elsewhere on this thread, an ER must treat--oh, unless Michelle is on the hospital admin. and has the indigent sent to another hospital to cut down on overhead. Then, they could die without treatment.

Obama and his cheerleaders keep hyping the "Cleveland Clinic" model for healthcare. For many years the Cleveland Clinic, which is located in a generally decrepit part of town, had no ER. They didn't want to absorb the cost of a deluge of Saturday night knife wounds and GSW's and other miscellaneous catastrophes with no way to collect. Only serious public and private pressure led them eventually to develop a minimal capability, hoping to limit losses.
