The Americans have the best health care but it is reserved for the filthy rich, only. If you're Middle Class, you lose everything if you get sick or injured. If you're poor, you are lucky to get a bandaid. We see poor Americans up here in Canada getting treatment in Canadian Emergency Wards (what you call "Casualty") all the time in our cities near the border. No one is turned away. That is our law.
All non citizens are billed for medical care in Canada. Usually Visa or Mastercard up front. We also bill for ambulance rides.

if they can't pay, they can't pay. There is no Canadian ER who'll turn someone away because their Visa was refused or there wallet is empty. You get the service, then you get billed and a whole lot of American visitors here never pay their bills.
