As a matter of fact, yes they do. I used to do psych consults in the ER of a small hospital I worked at. That neon "EMERGENCY" sign is like a welcoming beacon for people with all sorts of issues. Sometimes if they were dissatisfied with their treatment they would get loud and obnoxious and refuse to leave. That's when I was called. Mostly though, the folks I was called to see just wanted some drugs. Of course, there were some who had genuine serious problems and they would go to the psych unit.
As for this:
"most businesses which check credit tend to ignore medical debt if everything else looks clean." How would YOU know? (Druff)
If a medical debt stays on your report for a certain length of time, it WILL drop your score, and someone doing a credit check might not go any further than that.
