When it lines their pockets that's when. Notice how it's perfectly legal for:

Lifesaving treatment/drugs to be withheld if you can't afford to pay for them.

BUT, if you do have the money, but are brain-dead or otherwise out of direct control of yourself, or simply terminaly ill, you or your family must pay thru the nose while you linger on.
Yes, the U.S. has the best health care that money can buy.
