From what I understand... they HAVE to treat you whether you have insurance or not. By law, they cannot turn you away. But whether you have to pay for it or not is another story altogether. I believe you have to be able to prove that you don't make enough money to pay for it yourself, otherwise they will just set you up on a payment plan.
