Remember that in the end they will send you a bill for this entire circus, so unless it's an acute emergency you do not actually want any of this.

That depends very much on the circumstances. With decent insurance, they'll pay for almost all of it. Depending on your location, the state, federal government, or hospital may be required to foot the bill.

If the alternative is being dead, well... but yes, you don't want it unless it's a serious emergency. Chances are a welfare check isn't going to result in sectioning anyway, though.
