Medicare doesn't cover much for my mother. She has Blue Cross, and they pay 
most of it. My father was a government employee, and she still has good 
coverage, cheap. She hasn't paid a cent through all her ER visits.  Our ER 
takes anyone, right away, and worries about wringing the money out of you 
later. I'm 53, without insurance, and I'd be bankrupt if I went into a 
hospital (of course the only way they would get me into one would be if I 
was unconscious)..
