Parkland Hospital Maternal Illegal Alien Policy

I came across this article discussing how Parkland Hospital in Dallas manages, both financially and medically, such a high illegal alien maternity population. The article got my blood boiling. I find it terribly disturbing that a person can come into the country and receive free medical care, yet a U.S. citizen that needs help has to jump through hoops to get assistance. After the long tedious application and interview process has been completed, the U.S. citizen usually finds out that they make too much money or have too many assets. What is wrong with this picture? Don't get me wrong, I am all for every human being having the right to equal and adequate medical care, but in America our citizens should come first.
