If someone in America breaks their leg and they have no health insurance then what happens? |
If someone in America breaks their leg and they have no health insurance then what happens? iT DEPENDS, AS ANOTHER PERSON ANSWERED. iF YOU FALL JUST WALKING down the street you may end up paying the whole bill. But you should ask the hospital admitting office if they are a not-for-profit-hospital as many hospitals can turn you away if you can't pay or have no insurance, as they are private hospitals. iF YOU FALL IN A STORE OR PRIVATE HOME OR ON SOMEONE'S PROPERTY THEIR INSURANCE WILL PAY, IF YOU ARE IN A CAR WRECK EITHER YOUR INS. OR THEIR INS. WILL PAY. At NFPHs you will be treated and then you will have to submit proof of income or show no income and they will either waive your fees or have you pay the bill on a sliding scale according to your income. Hope that answers your Q. Source(s): retired NURSE They are shot. No, wait. That's horses. Bear all thier expenses. Let the doctors fix your leg, after it's fixed, use your legs and run outta there ;] ahah Most hospitals will take care of the leg,and if you don't have money and no job you will be referred to a welfare worker who will assist you in applying for welfare.It is against the law to turn away a person in need. First it will hurt, a lot, then they will have to go to hospital to have it fixed, then it will hurt some more because they will have to pay for everything. Ouch. |
