Simple question, once an illegal is in the US and requires healthcare where do they go and who pays the bill? We've all heard about "maternity motels" where pregnant illegals come prior to giving birth. Who pays for the delivery and any complications? What happens to an illegal who needs cancer treatments? Breaks a leg? Needs elbow surgery? Can someone provide some insight? Edited by PATruth, Apr 4 2018, 10:18 AM.

Federal law prohibits ER's from dispensing healthcare. The native born poor,illegal, and legal foreign usually go thru the ER cause they know we cant turn them away. A good portion gets written off as charity care |

Most if not all the people in the "maternity hotels" are here legally. They get a tourist visa if needed, fly here on "vacation" and have their baby. |

Wrong answer, the American taxpayer pays because these costs are absorbed by health insurance companies and legal citizens. Everyone's healthcare costs/premiums are higher because of illegals. What's the total cost per year? 30,40, 50 billion dollars/year? Democrats claiming they are for affordable healthcare while forcing Americans to pay for millions of illegal criminal's healthcare is just one more liberal lie. |

No you didn't, that's why I explained it. Writing something off is not the same as paying for it, we both know that. |

Charity care huh? So these hospitals just absorbed millions of dollars in cost without passing it on to someone else. |

With charity care..it absolutely has everything to do with it. Don't like it.. change the Federal law. Til then, my current and former employers will dispense care The charity care also helps the nstive born poor there PA unless you think my ER should let them die outside on the curb Edited by Tsalagi, Apr 4 2018, 11:08 AM.

I'm not complaining about helping Americans, I'm complaining about Americans who are already struggling to pay for our own healthcare paying for the healthcare of 11 million non-citizens. Again, a simple concept, we help our own and demand Latin American countries help their own. I would like to see Trump bill Mexico and every other country for healthcare we provide for their people. Are we getting a reciprocal benefit for American citizens in Mexico? |

In effect you do. Tsalagi gave you the reasoning why. Inefficient systems are expensive. The purposeful shunning that poor people endure is jnot ust for illegal immigrants, but for all poor people. So...you made your bed, now you get to lie in it. See how that works? |

Have you paid your internet taxes? | |

As far as Trump “billing Mexico”. That’s almost funny enough to build a five minute SNL skit

It’s the choice we have made. Mistreatment is expensive. Are there better and cheaper ways? Sure are...but we have too many people like you that prefer to do it the hard, stupid and expensive way. Good job. Edited by CautionaryTales, Apr 4 2018, 04:47 PM.

The same source that pays for uninsured Americans which President Trump is determined to increase by removing access to healthcare for millions. Only in America. |

Siphoning money from needy Americans to take care of illegal criminals? You folks betray working people in countless ways. |
