    CSpan - Committee hearing on health care

    Chris Shays, Darrell Issa - have both brought up issue of IAs, health care usage. FYI.

    You may care to tune in if you can. Debate has been intense at times.

    Waxman (D-CA) is defending status quo (comm Chairman)

    Talking about ER care and IAs.

    Saying that IAs don't qualify for Medicaid or already have insurance.
    (But, he doesn't say, that they still get treated, but just get billed later - of course, whether the bill actually gets paid later - is an entirely different matter).

    Dude, you're out of touch with reality (unless you're talking JUST of 'Kah-le-for-niiiaa' )

    Shays: is talking about coverage an IAs as part of the problem.

    Stresses ERs.

    Talks about his personal experience at an ER for 3 stitches and got a bill for $1300 from hospital.

    He is doing a good job in talking about capacity, costs, ability to absorb more people vs. limiting services, etc.

    What a load of B.S. Illegal aliens are most certainly eligible for Emergency Medicaid! That's were the money comes to pay for the thousands of anchor babies born in this country every year!

    I don't know about you but I can't get treatment at any er in denver without waiting for hours. It's always packed with Spanish speakers that can't fill out forms and communicate with hospital staff in a timley manner. And most of them we have to pay for. I don't want to pay for someone elses problems stemed from a poor choice of lifestyle.
