Hospital in a virtually identical scenario


Question: A mother brings her daughter to the emergency room every time she has an asthma attack. Her parents are part of the working middle class; however, they cannot afford health insurance and their income exceeds the minimum for the State's Children Health Insurance Program or federal assistance. The child is treated for her asthma attack at the hospital and she is discharged from the emergency department. Two weeks later, they return to the hospital in a virtually identical scenario. Do you think that the child has received adequate care? Should everyone be entitled to a basic "minimum of health care"... or to the exact same health care? What are the ethical, moral, and legal issues that a health administrator is faced with in this scenario?
