I've always wondered about this and have never gotten a concrete answer. So what would happen in these cases?
1. Elderly man new to the country comes to live with his child in the states. The man goes to the ER for whatever reason. Who incurs the cost? the man is obviously uninsured and his child cant afford the cost. Who does the cost fall on?
2. Homeless person struck by a car rushed to the ER. Who pays for that?
If anyone could help clear up the confusion I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
