While true the hospitals cannot turn away patients who are sick, it pretty much guarantees anyone who has any form of assets will never do so. U.S. is based on percentages, ie. company may be allowed by law to make only 20% profit. So, the bill is made multiple orders of magnitude higher at first bill. Then, "insurance earns its money" by lowering that bill. Then, you usually have to negotiate the final bill and deal with all the associated third-party charges. Finally, medical bills are very hard to discharge. The only people who think the U.S. has a good health care system are the rich who can afford anything and the poor who watch the news (propaganda) extolling how good our system is but don't actually take part in it. Even if you have insurance, you have to be very careful about what you use and when.
