Manitoba government pays most of man’s U.S. emergency medical bill
WINNIPEG — The Manitoba government has paid a large chunk of a $118,00 US medical bill for a man’s emergency treatment in the United States.
Robin Milne, who is 60, cried tears of joy after coming out of a meeting with Health Minister Kelvin Goertzen on Thursday.
He said this is a tremendous weight off of him.
Milne is still on the hook for about $40,000 US for his medical transport, though provincial officials said further discussions are ongoing over that invoice.
