What does a private hospital as a business do in a situation like this?

[Trush Jodie]

A patient is rushed to the hospital. And they don't have a penny to drop as deposit. The patient is in a critical condition. The hospital is going to use supplies bought with money to start treating the patient. Could be blood, oxygen etc.

What do the hospital do? Go ahead to treat the patient? How would they recover their money since these people couldn't afford even an initial deposit?

I understand how difficult this is but the priority should be on saving lives first. And that must be done.

A lot of people have died from situations like this. Private hospitals here will not treat you until you drop some money for treatment

If I run or manage a private hospital, I would save the life of a person in a critical condition first. When he or she is stable, we can start talking about money.

A hospital while it is a business has to do more with life, and should always see how to save lives at every point in time.

If I am running a private hospital, I will save life first. Give emergency treatment to the patient and when his/her condition is relatively stable, the patient should be sent to a public hospital.

Money no matter how much it is can never be superior to the life of a person. I would always save a life first before I talk about getting money of I run a private hospital.

This is how it should be. but some private hospitals are managed by very greedy people. They would not treat without payment

When someone dies and the hospital had a chance to save the person, do they even feel good? Their reputation would be greatly damaged.

On a normal day, the first priority of the hospital would be to save the patient, but we know these days hospitals now care too much about profit rather than saving lives which is so unfortunate.

It is not easy to run a private hospital. The running costs alone can be choking. But life is more important and should be prioritized by those private hospitals.

i wish private hospitals owners can think this way but they don't. They want money first before treatment. Too bad

In our place, you can get free treatment in state owned hospital if you do not have money to pay. Private hospitals can reject patients if the don't have money
