However, if the case is emergent the treatment is done instantly.
That's true in your southern neighbor too, Solon. ALL ERs that receive federal funds (and that in reality is all) are required by federal law to treat and stabilize any patient who comes in regardless of their financial situation. They are not allowed to turn them away for financial reasons and face discipline and lawsuits if they do.

And don't tell me Canadians do not come to the US to get faster treatment; I personally have met dozens who have done just that.
