Indeed a small group, often comprised largely of illegal aliens, has no other choice but to use the ER for medical care. The cost of maintaining this kind of health care is off the chart! It is ONE of the fundamental reason's we need Health Care reform. In fact, it is ONE of the reasons for INCLUDING a way for illegal aliens to get health coverage of some kind!!!

But to suggest that any and all Americans have adequate health care "coverage" by virtue of a visit to an Emergency room is irresponsible. Another equally ridiculous claim, by the Republican party is that Democrats will "ration" health care. Now gimme a break, just how stupid is that statement? Fact is we DO and HAVE "rationed" health care for decades, if not centuries.

Call me just a visitor here compared to someone who has in excess of 13000 posts to their credit ,or discredit be that as it may, but the debate should really center on the affordibility of health care insurance ,not the availability.
If you have the money,and you choose to spend it health insurance is available to everyone.
A simple thing like open market competition with companies allowed to sell nationwide would go a long way to making what is available ,affordable.
Without the government doing anything except changing the regulations,and costing the taxpayers nothing.
