Sounds like criminal neglect and negligence.
This is so fucked. I don't even know what else to add. Disgusting. I get corporate greed, but an actual person had to do this... How they did, I cannot fathom.

So OP, there is no indication that the hospital discharged her due to failure to pay.
This would be illegal, and against the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act.
According to the hospital they are forced to do this when the patient is discharged from the hospital and the patient refuses community support programs such as transportation to a homeless shelter.
It's a very shitty situation but I don't see what the hospital can do here? If someone could let me know that would be great.
This is American healthcare. I’ve been there. No help unless you can pay
There have been several reports over the years, this one in particular is UofL Hospital from 2023
America is a moral sewer.
Fuck Capitalism. Can’t say what should happen to the system…Don’t wanna go catching warnings from Reddit for inciting violence against a broken political ideology that’s created a rigged system which favors corporations and the uber wealthy…….And literally throws the sick on the streets.
