Two-thirds of the outpatient clinics patients are illegal immigrants. An estimated $50 million in uncompensated care this year. The sad but undeniable truth of this situation is that the expense of providing care to the illegals is causing this facility to close, so citizens and those who are here legally will no longer have this care, either.
NJ is undergoing massive hospital closings for the same reasons with the same results.
