My friend went to ER with a broken jaw. After taking X-Rays - his jaw is broken on both sides - and they discharged him with an appt for surgery the next day. His insurance was declined, so they refused to do his surgery. He can't eat or drink, and has bone splinters jutting out through his gums! Keck Hospital is a public hospital, and it is malpractice to refuse treatment to a patient, emergency or not, regardless f insurance or ability to pay.
