Well I'm guessing because they don't have policies this egregious.

The article itself mentions that Mt. Sinai and Weill Cornell "offer luxury accommodations and personal concierge services to patients who can afford them," so it's not like they're being ignored — but prioritizing rich people for emergency treatment seems like it may be unique to NYU.

That quote does not address the ER policies explicitly and NYU would issue a similar statement if asked. I would like to know which rich person was waiting in the hallways of Mount Sinai or Weill Cornell. No one is willing to offer a quote of how they are just like a commoner?
