Another article with a false premise. Hispanics, especially Mexican immigrants, have the best maternal and infant mortality rate, the best longevity at the other end. Hispanics, especially Mexican immigrants, both legal and illegal and anchor babies, have the highest rate of uninsured of any demographic group.

Fact: There is no correlation between Health (absence of illness) and Insurance (mis-labeled Healthcare). There certainly is no causation. Are Those who are paid to be in the "concern industry" are concerned that a group is proving them wrong on their basic premise?

Who cares? We’re supposed to take care of the rest of the world? Yeah, sure.

The left want us to put a huge sign on the border that says “Anyone that wants free health care- come here- we’ll go broke treating you since your own country won’t. Just come here, get treated to the tune of 10’s of 1000’s of dollars, and then stay- don’t worry about the cost- it’s free”

“Access” is a code word for taxpayer paid stuff. No one is prohibited from getting health care.

This is insane. Take care of American born first.
It is not cold to say we can’t take care of everyone

“To reduce maternal mortality and infant mortality,”

If all these mothers and infants are really dying in Georgia, why isn’t the news-backed up with statistics-out there for everyone to see? Insurance is NOT “healthcare”, a 19 year old is NOT a child-and this article is just another false plea for giving taxpayer funded stuff ti mojados/illegals who don’t have any right to even be here...

So she assures Georgia taxpayers that the state won’t have to pay the cost of tens of thousands more takers in PeachCare, since the federal government will pay 67%.
Who does she think pays the cost for the federal government’s obligation? There is no free lunch, madam. Every dollar comes from American taxpayers, most of them from Middle Class wage earners who have absolutely no obligation to pay for anyone’s children but their own.

There are plenty of pay-per-service walk-in health clinics.
Flat fee for the visit, plus a few dollars extra for each lab test.

When I didn’t have ins, I went to a Dr only when needed, & paid about $120-140 each time.
That’s way better than a $900 mo premium x 12 mos when when only needed Dr 2x per yr.

Never, ever did I take my kids to the ER for an earache or tetanus shot. We went to the clinic & paid cash.

In fact, many privately owned clinics will charge self-paying patients up to 40% less than insured, due to savings on insurance billing.

Relatively healthy persons need not pay 1000s for annual premiums, nor should the taxpayers be subsidizing the insurance companies.

Here in Washington state, children under 18 and pregnant women automatically qualify for Medicaid - regardless of legal status.

Children under 18 also qualify for full dental care, K-12 schooling, and free lunch (and breakfast, if available) at school - once again, regardless of legal status.

Also - Seattle, King County, and my affluent suburban city, do not report illegal alien criminals to ICE.

Not running to the Dr. every other day is precisely why they enjoy better health. If the Dr.s don’t pump you full of unneeded meds they scare you to death.

Used to be the law of the land that immigrants....legal immigrants had to have a sponsor and were prohibited by law from seeking or accepting any government assistance such as food, housing or healthcare. My parents, just like millions of others managed pay for the births of four children as well as house and clothe them before becoming citizens, and all of that despite coming to America with only seven dollars and change in their pockets.

Now the damn liberals demand that we not only welcome illegals but give them more benefits than American citizens.

Real simple: if you’re not skilled and educated enough to hold a job that has health benefits, I don’t want you immigrating here.

Five-Year Waiting Period Is a Barrier to Immigrant Health Care Access

A feature, not a flaw.
