The county picks up the tab. The hospitals here now actually prefer the non insured patients in the ER because they can bill more money for the care given to the county than they can to private insurers.

dont know much about US health care .. but I recall someone saying the other day he went to the emergency for a broken arm ... which cost him couple of G's... Could that be? Broken arm is an emergency in my book... or are you talking about life threatening emergency......?
