I believe the problem is that emergency rooms choose to treat non-emergencies to make money. They can charge higher fees for non-emergencies if the care is provided in the emergency room. Patients should be screened as soon as they arrive, and told to go somewhere else if their condition is not a real emergency. Contrary to what many people think, this would not violate federal law.
