Oh thank you for the insight. I guess that makes it all good? Actually no it doesn't. But there is a hell of a lot more to that law. Jojajn, let me give you a quick scenario, The captain of the an ambulance company finally had call the GOVT because the ambulance drivers had to sit in the lobby at the ER for hours at a times
One man had a massive heart attack right there in the lobby while the ems tech tried to code him.
Another man brougt in same ER after an hour of waiting he seized on the stretch and died. He hand an aneurysm.That law is very clear that when an ambulance brings a patient in, yes they must be treated, BUT that patient MUST be examined by a Registered Nurse (triage nurse) as soon as they enter the hospital grounds. The initial triage is called a MSE. (medical screening exam)
Ok after i did a 4 month investigation, I found that the hospital was infact letting patients stay with EMS until they get a bed. The hospital believed that until an RN did an exam then they weren't responsible.
The hospitals excuses were "a nurse called in sick, or no beds in the hospital for new patient. Those reasons as good as they sound I could not find that in the law. What I mean is no where in the law does it say: if nurse trixie calls in sick then don't worry about the patient. I am sure you will get to them sooner or later.
This facility was fined 80K for each of the 8 cases I investigated. All the patients had insurance btw.
The one patient who I stated had a massive heart attack had a 99% blockage or the RCA, and 88K of the LAD. This patient had been giving all info known to medicine to have a clean healthy heart in the past.
So the nurses and hospital are to blame for a lifetime of poor eating choices and bad habits by people that give themselves blocked arteries.
You do know how arteries get blocked 99%
McDonald's
Burger King
Taco Bell (my FIL's favorite) still eats it and has had 6 bi passes and a stint. Won't make it to Christmas.

Poor people that don't get their medical care, when they wan't it.
Prevention is the key to managing the risk for coronary artery disease.

Low cholesterol diet.
Low fat diet.
Low salt diet.
Weight loss if you are overweight.
Stop smoking.
Avoid exposure to secondary smoke.
Reduce stress.
Avoid using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories if you have had a heart attack before. Studies show an increase risk for heart attack and death in those who do. Ask your doctor for guidance with regard to these medications.
