Original Note:
By Federal law, anyone in a hospital emergency department must receive medical treatment, regardless of ability to pay. If the patient doesn’t pay the resulting costs, he or she effectively receives “free” medical care. https://www.cms.gov/medicare/regulations-guidance/legislation/emergency-medical-treatment-labor-act
