   Unlikely. The county clinics are highly subsidized up front. While the   
   amount of care received probably cost the government well over $400,   
   there was no need to submit any bills since the government already paid   
   for the doctors, nurses, laboratory, and support staff. It's more   
   efficient than submitting forms for reimbursement for every patient.
