   Most of the U.S.

   For emergency room visits for medially approved conditions, when the patient is treated and released, ER costs are covered by Medicare Part B (medical insurance). The patient is responsible to pay the co-payment of the emergency room charge plus the co-pay for each specific service received (such as X-Rays or EKG).
