No need to worry: US ambassador to Ireland
US ambassador to Ireland Kevin O’Malley said parents of those injured in the Berkeley balcony collapse should not have to worry about the cost of medical care.
Speaking on RTÉ radio about fears that the medical bills of those seriously injured could be huge and might not be covered by medical insurance, O’Malley said: “I don’t think any of the physicians or nurses or staff will be concerned about their insurance coverage. They will get the very best care that is available and that is what is important for today.
“The important thing that I take away from this is that this tragedy occurred in a place where some of the best hospitals in the United States happen to operate. Those students need the very best care they can get in the United States and they are in the best place where it can be delivered to them.”
