[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 424236, member: 84"] All hospitals have to treat you. Especially if they are the only one with the treatment you need. They can't deny you simply because you have no insurance. As far as the surgery, I know they do it as an outpatient, but since there is no one to drive you home, they can admit you over night and you can drive yourself home the next day. It's not unheard of, especially in rural areas. We've had patients have to stay a day or two for the same reason, they had to be up to driving themselves home. If you're already dealing with infection, don't put it off. Call who needs to be called to get the surgery arranged by no later than monday. [/QUOTE]
