Yeah a friend knew some guy without papers that fell off his bike and dislocated his shoulder. They needed a driver for their car so I drove them to a local hospital. We asked them if they would treat someone without health insurance and with no papers. The hospital staff did treat him for free, even invented a makeshift arm support thing because the proper thing would have had to be paid for by insurance (it worked just as well).
We went to two hospitals in total I think because it was late at night and we were unsure if they would maybe call the police or something like that. But in the end it all worked out pretty well.
