It's amazing. The illegal health care costs are shutting down countless hospitals. There is a nearby hospital (from me) that went bankrupt due to having to accept illegals with no means of paying, and was eventually bought by a group of local doctors. It's a privately owned hospital now, and those without medicare, medicaid, no insurance at all are sent by ambulance to the nearest large city hospital that has to accept anyone regardless of citizenship. It's not that the doctors don't care, it's that they have to keep the place running.
