If you think it's free you are the idiot my health insurance went up 35% in price this year and both of my parents lost their health care coverage obamacare is garbage it has caused millions of cancellations with a very small amount of people actuall being able to sign up for it more people signed a petition for the US government to build the Death Star than people signed up for obamacare by the initial enrollment date top doctors throughout America hate this act and are shipping there practices elsewhere
No ER can turn anyone away for not being able to pay. Lots of hospitals write off millions every year because they treat people who can't pay. Are there corrupt, money grubbing doctors and medical establishments? Absolutely. But the "healthcare" problem is not actually a problem with healthcare. It's a health insurance problem.
If you're not insured, always ask about an uninsured discount. Most hospitals and doctors offices have them. And if you're in the ER and don't have insurance, ask for a CARDON representative or financial counselor. They can help you apply for grants people give to the hospital for those that are uninsured, and other programs that can help.
Not exactly the common repub's forte. I almost feel bad for them, constantly being bombarded with worldview-confirming spin and downright misinformation from their own party.

This is a serious problem where I work. I'm worried that the hospital will go under in a few years because of it.
