I don’t believe it will be like the car fiasco or Katrina. Hospitals have been facing their own Katrina for a long time through illegal immigrants and cuts in the socialized medicine programs that CMS provides. People (legal or not) are already entitled to emergency medical care through EMTALA.
I see more of the less obvious occurring such as physicians retiring earlier than planned, more physicians not accepting CMS (including Medicare)to try and free themselves of the government, more insurance companies closing shop, the need to import foreign physicians who are more the willing to accept this universal care crap, more of the highly qualified students not choosing medicine and more of the less qualified choosing medicine, and as this proposed crapola plan progresses...a huge split in health care between the most wealthy and the rest through emergence of private healthcare system (doesn’t take government minions) and a public system (takes government minions)

Perhaps the foreign army is an army of foreign doctors?
