Denver Health at “Critical Point” as 8,000 Migrants Make 20,000 Emergency Visits
 Attached FileThe Denver hospital system is turning away local residents because it is flooded with migrant visits. ABC News reports Denver hospital system may collapse due to migrant crisis: ‘We are turning down patients’ Denver Health CEO Donna Lynne warned the center is in a crucial moment due to unexpected costs associated with immigrant visits. What I think is not being said is that Denver Health is at a critical, critical point and that we need to take this up in 2024,” Lynne told the Denver City Council, according to the Denver Post. Eight-thousand migrants from Central America accounted for approximately 20,000 visits in 2023. Denver Health asked the Federal Emergency Management Agency to provide funds for immigrants’ medical costs. The state and federal governments aren’t reimbursing the hospital, which spent $136 million for patients who didn’t pay. |

Par for the course when you have a large illegal alien population. Some of the hospital maternity wards in my area have 90%+ no pay on baby deliveries due to all the illegals dropping their anchor babies on this side of the border.
Don’t worry though, I’m sure the government will be along soon to rescue the system with single payer. |

Hospitals should put up signs at the main entrance explaining how many visits were for uninsured, and how much money is being paid by insured patients to treat the uninsured.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Hospitals should put up signs at the main entrance explaining how many visits were for uninsured, and how much money is being paid by insured patients to treat the uninsured. At this point, the government directly or indirectly finances about half of the money spent on healthcare in this country. The people with private insurance and self pay get screwed for the other half. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Hospitals should put up signs at the main entrance explaining how many visits were for uninsured, and how much money is being paid by insured patients to treat the uninsured. This shit needs to be exposed to the masses. They don't know, and the complicit media allows them to keep their head buried in the sand. Hell, the hospital should put a notice at the bottom of the bill showing that average amount of the bill that is paying for other people who don't pay. When Seattle passed a $15 "Living wage" several years ago, many restaurants and service industry places added "living wage" surcharges to their receipts. |

The only way the population will even notice is if the hospital closes. Talking to a liberal acquaintance in December and I was assured illegal immigration has decreased under FJB. They have no grasp on reality.

If you or I go the ER for something minor it 5-10k.
If you don't pay it goes to collections. If they can't get a garnishment they'll lein your house. All while the illegals get a write off and hospital will likely be reimbursed by the gov somehow. |

Now look at the hospitals in the smaller cities and town on Colorado. Same issues all over the state and I can assure you, the rest of us outside the cesspool cities wanted no part of any of these consequences, voted against any type of "crimmigrant" assistance and spoke 'til we were blue in the face against these bullshit policies. We are flatly ignored, much like they did with the mag bans and any number of other dipshit leftist fantasies. It's become an ignorant drug addled shithole of a state and as soon as my family responsibilities are no longer a concern there'll be a vapor trail behind my fuck you I'm outta here ass.

This was happening to the hosptial down by the border in El Centro, CA. Illegals going in there and running up tabs en mass, never paying a cent. Surprise. What business can operate like that?
The hospital I owe money isnt getting a cent from me until they pry it from my hands. Their own system has a pot that they can dip into, if you prove youre broke. So I blow my life savings paying them back, while someone whos a bum pays nothing. Na |

Needs to go tits-up so no one can deny that potato's unchecked border policy is literally hazardous to your health. But that Becerra fuck running HHS will shit some money on dim/libtard orders to prevent that embarrassment from happening and giving GOP a great talking point and commercial going in to November.
