As a former ER Nurse and crisis therapist, I will state, unequivocally, that ED’s are way too busy taking care of marginally ill people who should have gone to their doctor... if they had insurance, to start trying to get people into treatment. The patient probably won’t take the “cure” anyway. This bill was obviously written by someone who has never worked in an ER, or done drug and alcohol counseling. People without knowledge should never be making decisions on things they have no knowledge of.
