No visitor insurance????
So this is the great mighty usa eh?
Where medical care is not free?
Was that not a human right to get healthcare for free or reasonable charges?
Yet that dumb usa goes on preaching human rights and freedoms around the globe??
Apni asal auqaat dikha di amreeka ne…….what a shitty place to get sick…..

Even in Canada medical treatment isn't free for non Canadians.
Permanent Residents of Canada are non-Canadians yet entitled to govt healthcare so not just citizens….

You can get medical insurance for 300$ a month through ObamaCare and claim tax credit for the entire amount if you are in the low income bracket. Low income individuals or families can apply for Federal/ State Medicaid in most states it's free.
Average income for low income earners is 2,500 US$ a month.Depending on where you live you can afford 300 $'s in insurance if you avoid unnecessary expenses.
People don't get medical insurance because:
- they are not citizens or legal residents.
- they don't believe they need medical insurance (the young and stupid)
- they really can't afford it or they'd rather not spend money on insurance.
Hospitals are required by law to treat all medical emergencies even if the patient can't pay for the treatment.

At that point the patient is dumped to the curb with astronomical bills.
That's clearly what happened in this case.
The problems with the medical industry in the U.S. are manyfold.

I didn't say emergency medical care is free. Most rarely ever pay back the hospital and some negotiate a much lower payback. 43 Million Americans have unpaid medical emergency bills (2019)

Travelling anywhere in the world without travel medical insurance is crazy.. esp USA which it is a massive profit making machine!
My mother is in her late 60's and has every single south asian aliment there is
... but i pay for her travels and remind her that her medical insurance costs me more than the flight, and the hotels combined !!!!!!

Tourist medical bills raise red flags
Taxpayers burdened with whopping unpaid medical tourist bill
