Who pays for the cost of health care services for illegal immigrants in a county and city run hospitals? Simple question. |

The cost is absorbed initially by the hospital. That cost is not ignored, it is later passed on to its customers in increased rates. Insurance companies (who are customers too) factor this cost into their premium rate, deductibles and coverage plan. Uninsured customers have no one to bargain for them, so they are charged a typically higher rate for the services they get. Sometimes they pay, often they can’t. Hospitals are often funded with taxes or at least tax breaks. The people that pay taxes are left footing the bills that the imbalance of charge/payment creates that can’t be met by sick people in an emergency situation. Emergency rooms are a bad place to get medical attention. The only thing worse is no medical attention. Medical attention properly applied in the beginnings of illness are a good bit cheaper to handle. In many cases uninsured people wait until the cost to heal them will be high. It’s an inefficient system. Now...unless you are an idiot you understand and understood all of this all along, so let’s cut to the reason you are asking the rhetorical question, ok?

So democrats are demanding working Americans pick up the healthcare costs for 11+ million people who disrespect our laws? Yep, that is the correct answer. They comprise probably a third of all the uninsured in the US and we are wasting countless billions of of taxpayer dollars while punishing Americans in need of healthcare. Let's congratulate the American liberal for their generosity with OUR money and once again attacking American citizens. When you vote for a democrat you are really voting to support criminals.

Was that simple? Taxpayers absorbed the cost for city and county hospitals. Members absorbed the cost for private hospitals. Why ask you say? The left are known to dance around answers that do not support their narrative. At least your honestly rise to the occasion. Thanks pops. |

Using liberal math we should conclude 11+ million people sucking our healthcare system, in addition to all their children burdening our schools is an economic benefit to our economy? As a bonus we get to all the crime, drugs, thefts and assaults on our citizens. We are also forced to house tens of thousands of them in our prisons, in CA that costs $75K/year. Let's here it my liberal friends, they are a fine addition to our country and we should encourage more of these illiterate peasants to enter our country illegally...say it... |

Leftists always tell us housing, schooling, feeding, imprisonment, and providing healthcare for illegal immigrants are net gain for this country. I'd like to see a leftist break down this voodoo mathematical equation as how they come to that conclusion. |

I explained 3 times in the short answer. You weren't satisfied with the simplest answer so CT expanded on my answer with more advanced factors. But my first answer was correct. The initial funding came from my employer. Edited by Tsalagi, Apr 6 2018, 11:07 AM.

Nope. Absorbing, loss, or tax write off are not the answer. Pa asked "who" pays the bill, not what hospitals do when they treat people who have no obligations to pay the bill. His question was crystal clear. |

I'm not sure what Mexico's official policy is but my understanding is you better be prepared to pay on the spot. In the US the taxpayers pick up the tab and no reimbursement is sought. Edited by PATruth, Apr 6 2018, 11:36 AM.

Yes..this is "paying the bill"...the funding and or acceptance of loss came from my employer, that is "paying the bill"...hey, I get it, my answer doesn't jive with your or PA's narrative, sucks for you, but that's the answer. |

They have a similar legal process at their ER's, no patient is denied treatment based on ability to pay. |

That's really cool, it's like me going my local Ford dealer and just drive off with a car without paying. No one pays, they just write it off? We should stop using cash, everybody gets everything and businesses just write everything off! How great would that be, everything is virtually free because no one pays when the bill is written off! I think Mr T just stumble on a groundbreaking new economic system! It's the best of capitalism and communism! |

Being denied care doesn't mean the debt is forgiven or "written off." You follow? I'm thinking my gringo arse better produce a credit card. Edited by PATruth, Apr 6 2018, 11:42 AM.

No, I'm against American citizens paying for the healthcare of non-Americans. Not that difficult, why are you struggling with it? |
