Hospitals in the United States must provide emergency medical treatment to people who just walk in and low-income patients can receive reduced or free medicine. Foreigners who reside in the U.S also have a right to free medical treatment as a "walk-in." Patients in China, however, must pay first before receiving medical treatment, and as a result many dying patients are denied much needed medical treatment. Some patients have even died in front of the hospital because of their inability to pay. In 1998, a report disclosed that about one-third of Chinese people were unable to receive medical treatment, with the statistic being higher in poor, rural areas in China.
