Hospitals are covered under EMTALA so if it’s truly emergency and they accept Medicare, they are legally forced to.
A hospital that doesn’t take Medicare has no obligation to give you any treatments.
- janalsncm 4y agoFair enough, I’ll take your word on what the law says. What if I live in an area where there’s only one hospital and it doesn’t take Medicare, do I just need to watch what I say so I don’t piss them off and they deny me life saving treatment? Even if that may happen to be legal, is that what the law should be?
