It is United States law that a hospital ER cannot refuse service to someone just because they won't be able to pay. This provides an incentive for people to seek treatment at the worst possible time - and leave the hospital (and, through lowered wages or raised prices, the rest of society) to foot the bill. But if more people have health insurance, then more hospitals can get paid for the work they do.
