People need help because this was unforeseen but this is a slippery slope. I know hospitals already take care of these people often but getting the tax payer to foot the bill will be a policy hard to change. Abuse on both side will continue to grow. Horrible situation...

Will they spread the virus, if not treated. That is the more-important question

Why do we still have war after Obama?

He was given the Nobel Peace Prize after all.

Kentucky has stopped doing the checks for Medicaid, income, Medicare receipt, and citizenship. Everyone who applies is able to get 3 months of Medicaid coverage essentially no questions asked.

Why can't they pay for it themselves? I mean they are all here to work, right?

Once they show up in the ER, we have to treat. Uninsured can be a material chunk of your ER volume depending on the geography. We need to be reimbursed somehow...
