You know, most, most ERs admit, you know, far fewer than 50% of their patients. They go to observation and go home or just get discharged straight from the ER?

One of the worst ways is you have a community of people who’ve paid into Social Security their whole life, paid into to support Medicare their whole life, and don’t live long enough to see the fruits of that.
