Doctors and nurses don’t know if you have insurance. Are we supposed to believe the receptionist runs into the ER and tells the doctors to quit working on an uninsured patient?

Well, the receptionists should be telling the doctors who is and who is not a paying customer.

If not, those who are responsible and actually carry health insurance will not receive adequate treatment as medical resources and my tax dollars are wasted on deadbeats who refuse to carry health insurance.

So they should die because they don’t have insurance? I didn’t have insurance, but paid for my bill in less than 6 months. It was cheaper than paying for insurance. A lot of healthy people pay cash for their care. Why shell out a $1000 or more per month, year after year, if you are young and healthy, when it’s cheaper to pay as you go...for the most part.
