The hospital treated 25 such patients last year at a cost to TMC of $1.5 million, said Robert Guerrero, the market administrator handling cross-border patients for TMC. Through the first nine months of this year, the hospital had treated 23 paroled patients at the same cost, $1.5 million.

This is working out to about 60,000$ per patient.Can this be right?

Isn't this "Two-Party Cartel" with its NAFTA, GATT, & loose immigration policy WONDERFUL. I think you all should just continue with these wonderful pols that care nothing about your security (financial or defense wise). Be sure & elect them back in next time & do't let that pubbie majority fool ya. Someone or another event will put the congress back in liberal/commie hands. That's what the puppetires of these "bought & paid for" want & the hell with you sheeple who 80% want the borders secured. Put some ice on it & come out next election to see the unpresidented 95% + incumbants being re-elected. Then see how much more money this kooks can steel from you.

Shameless, isn't it? On the one hand you got Mexico unwilling to shoulder it's responsibilities, on the other hand you've got our very own medical industry screwing taxpayers mercilessly, and on the 3rd hand you've got a two-party sytem which demands liberal immigration AND zero price caps. What's a poor, working stiff to do?

There was one in San Diego several years ago who ended up getting a liver transplant courtesy of the state of California. The total cost to taxpayers for treating this guy was close to $2 million FOR ONE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT.
