"We are here for everybody and that's the beauty of UMC," Carrison said.
He says he hopes eventually some medicaid reimbursement arrives. When these hospitals do not receive payments of any kind.The hospital in turn must look for ways to save money by laying off people,reduce hours,close off certain floors.They should stabilize these illegals afterwards make arrangements to ship them home and let their hospitals pickup the tab/and their countries can be sending money to our hospitals paying for all their treatments.None of this is cheap and taxpayers are paying good money to give illegal aliens free medical care.Illegal aliens have better free medical care than Americans.
Carrison should work for free since he’s all compassionate and stuff.
Meanwhile speaking of free medical care...ADDS CREATION DATE, LOCATION AND BYLINE - This Aug. 7, 2013 photo provided by Shahraiz Bajwa and taken in Washington, D.C. shows Muhammad Shahzaib Bajwa, who has been comatose since being injured in a November crash while spending a semester in an exchange program at the University of Wisconsin-Superior. His family is trying to prevent the Essentia Health-St. Mary’s Medical Center in Duluth from sending him back to his home country. A hospital spokeswoman said Bajwa won’t be able to stay in the country legally after his student visa expires Feb. 28.

so they're going to layoff staff?...close off units?....this means less care for us....less choice...
I guess if you need a heart transplant just show up there without id and only speak spanish....
Ask a liberal why we cannot bill the country of origin at @x market price for the procedure?
They will deny Americans care and rob the taxpayers to “care” for foreign criminal aliens
I know people on dialysis here in Southern California. I personally have visited with a friend at a dialysis clinic and have seen and heard most of the patients. Most cannot speak cannot speak English or speak it in such broken fashion that they are incomprehensible. Out of 48 I have seen only 3-4 are white Americans; the rest are Hispanics and Asians. None of the employees are white Americans, except the owner, and most of the employees speak such broken English one cannot understand them. Once again my report is based upon personal observation by sight and sound.
They should return to the countries from which they came here ILLEGALLY and avail themselves of the FREE, HIGH QUALITY CARE there.
Mexico is the 10th richest nation on Earth. Deport them right to Mexico City. If they die, it is on Mexico’s head.
I definitely support giving emergency medical care to anyone who needs it.
But as for illegal aliens, they should be treated and then sent to their home countries for follow-up care.
This would not be a big, serious problem IF ONLY our federal government would reasonably enforce our laws (borders).
Most of this problem arises because of Obama’s open borders policy.
(An even greater problem is, I believe, all the illegal aliens flooding into USA from countries OTHER than Mexico, countries that are openly hostile to America ... “religion of peace” places, need we say more?....We will someday discover just how deep we are in this DooDoo....)
Why don’t we invoice the illegal’s home country? They are responsible for these costs.
Well what do you do? Throw these people away? Let them die? And when does that stop?” Carrison said.
Well when the hospital goes belly up AMERICANS will die. Who are you loyal to Dr. Carrison?
Too bad someone doesn't have the guts to require all illegals getting free medical care to be photographed, fingerprinted and that information being sent to ICE for their deportation.
The problem will be solved when amnesty is passed, most likely AFTER the midterm elections. Then all illegals involved will be automatic American citizens eligible for Obamacare.
We are such a cruel country. Why would any one come here illegally. We’re all racists providing them free food, free medical care, free education a tax free existence. If only we were to give all the illegals amnesty they would sign right up to pay taxes and get Obamacare.
Pathetic
