Is it true that hospitals are required to provide emergency care to everyone?
Unclear. Several sources state that US law (EMTALA) requires emergency departments to examine, stabilize and treat anyone regardless of ability to pay, and two nursing textbooks repeat that hospitals must provide emergency care to everyone. None of the items establishes a general, non-US-specific requirement, so the evidence covers only a narrower, US-scoped version of the claim.
