Mary Griebe, a 68-year-old uninsured woman suffering from severe chest pain, was turned away by St. Jude Mercy Hospital Tuesday. 'Unfortunately, Mercy Hospital is unable to treat patients whose ability to pay is unclear,' said hospital director Dr. Wesley Simmons. 'The chest-pain sufferer who arrived at our emergency room was given directions to several other nearby hospitals that might be more willing to help her, including Good Samaritan General, Hope & Compassion County, and Basic Human Decency General.'
