      Judith, how do you expect the hospital to pay their bills if patients are not paying for their service?

    Very good comment, Danti. If patients are not paying their bills how could the hospitals pay their workers. Maybe this maybe is one of the government workers who are owed months of salary while the governors and politicians are busy paying themselves.
