Congressman Bob Filner has introduced the Pay for All Your Undocumented Procedures (PAY UP!) Act, H.R. 4021. Filner said the act would require the Department of Homeland Security to reimburse medical providers for uncompensated care for undocumented persons detained by the border patrol and federal immigration officials.
Filner said the act would help hospitals, doctors and ambulance providers while Congress continues to debate immigration policy reform.
