[Bassman007]

[Kondor3]

They can have all the liver transplants they want, on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande... or wherever the hell they came from... not our business.

 

[Timmy]

Well according to most conservatives , it's your financial situation that's important . Not your immigration status.

Many Americans go to Mexico for medical procedures due to a much lower price, but still excellent quality. Same goes for retirees.

One Million Americans in Mexico Can’t All Be Wrong
Reports are that approximately one million Americans live in Mexico. While it’s hard to verify that number, it’s not hard to imagine that it’s true. Some are working, of course, for U.S., Mexican, or other foreign corporations. You’ll find them in cities like Mexico City, Queretaro, and Monterrey.

And some live in Mexico just part-time…spending winter months in vacation homes where the weather is always warm and the cervezas are always cold.

A retiree's view from Mexico: Buena vida
...It's estimated that thousands of Americans and Canadians aren't just picturing it -- they're living it, in a lakeside town in Mexico just a short drive from Mexico's second largest city, Guadalajara. With Mexican immigrants in the United States serving as a political hot potato, the lesser discussed issue is the number of Americans who relocate to Mexico, CBS Detroit reported.

The number of foreign-born residents of Mexico doubled between 2000 and 2010, according to the Huffington Post, with Americans representing three-quarters of the documented foreigners....


Health care, and patients, go south — to Mexico

Is there even a liver shortage ?...

Yes, Gary Busey used them all up.

and these people are spending a great deal of money, they are contributing heavily to the Mexican economy

their status will remain secure, it's a whole different set of circumstances

Wouldn't same have been true before the ACA?

 

[The Great Goose]

The ignorance you are displaying is astronomical.

 

[Little-Acorn]

Is there a coherent thought in English somewhere in that thread title?

I'll assume it meant "heart surgery", and was meant to connect somehow to the first sentence of the OP... and was a question, not a statement.

He'll do what Mexican citizens near the border have always done: Walk right up to the fence, fall over, start gasping and calling for help. And a BP agent will hear him (hopefully), see he has a problem, and whisk him into the nearest hospital on the U.S. side. Americans being a charitable and giving people, his treatment will be free to him (whether or not required by EMTALA), and Americans will pay for it later through much higher fees for their own medical treatments. When he's well enough to travel, they'll boot him back over the border, along with a hospital bill he'll drop into the nearest trash can.

This has been true since long before Obamacare was imposed on us.

BTW, as a conclusion, the hospital will eventually close when American patients start avoiding it due to its incredibly high fees, and it finds itself with nothing but "free" patients who can't or don't pay. More than sixty such American hospitals in the border area have closed in the last 25 years, mostly for these reasons.

So when the BP agent finds the guy, he has to be driven farther and farther to find medical help. And Americans living in the area, will find their medical bills soaring higher and higher. A trend that shows no signs of slowing.

A Saudi Prince can fly over here and get hear surgery. Should that not be allowed ?

Your scenario only comes into play if there is an emergency situation .

Well, the only thing I've got going for me,
IS my immigration status!

You mean the UCA or Unaffordable Care Act. And you can't answer the question as usual
