If you really wanted to bring prices down then change the laws so that hospitals could reject non paying ER patients. They could just point them to the nearest vacant lot to go die. Harsh? Perhaps.



If the person is truly on the verge of death, you don't have time to figure out whether he/she has insurance, especially if he/she is not conscious

'Scuse me sir, I see you are bleeding profusely from the head, can I see some ID and your insurance card?

That's the tiny minority of ER patients. My wife works in the ER. They get:
'The hair on my head hurts.'
'My baby won't go to sleep.'
'I need some of them pills you got for pain.'
