If I'm dying, I want the best care I can get. I'm not about to argue with someone trying to save my life to make a political point to an ER doctor who didn't have anything to do with it in the first place. And I'm certainly not about to risk my own health outcomes by withholding the insurance that I paid for to help me in that exact scenario.

Oh, I wouldn't be arguing with the ER doctor. I'd be arguing with the billing murderers, like the one that comes in to shake you down for money while in the ER bed.
