Is health care in children already socialized


Is health care in children already socialized?
Since it's the state's job I believe to provide a child with proper medical treatment regardless of what the parents can pay, and we're paying those taxes that get them covered, don't we already have "universal health care" of sorts for people under eighteen?

Health care is partially socialized. For children, the elderly, the poor, etc. Amazing, a thumbs down for stating a simple fact with absolutely no opinion or inferences.
2 :
Not it my state. Costs for people who can't pay are pick up by everyone in the form of higher medical bills.
3 :
also hospital emergency rooms can not turn any one away even if they can not pay for it. that is payed for by people with health insurance. that's one reason health costs are high.
4 :
No, there are millions of children without health care They can wait in an emergency room but if they aren't dying, they don't proper care now California is cutting down the-number of clinics for the poor because of their budget
5 :
No. Look at the death rates for children aged under five, and compare them to the rates of countries in western Europe.
