Union Hospital

Union Hospital

common term used by the general public to describe any Union Medical installation with live personnel. While technically only a Class III Union Med Station and Upward is a Hospital.

Union Hospitals have a stellar reputation inside and beyond the borders of Union space. As of 5050 all member species can be treated.(With the exception of the Camogi who individually have to short life spans and as a race have no known diseases, injuries or other conditions that could be described as medical relevant. Even the Narth have a Union Health Clinic on Narth Gate . (Mostly for show, but the chief medical officer of the Narth Clinic is a Narth and has been known to give health advice to Narth who wanted to experience a disease or injury.)

Unlike Union Hospital ships known to give aid to anyone, Union Hospitals do make a difference between Citizens, Residents and Non Cits.

Union Citizens are entitled to any form of health service in the best possible way. The most distant and expensive private specialist will be consulted if needed. The entire Health Central system is dedicated to Citizen service first and foremost. Residents will get standard health service, but are not entitled to it and technically a Union Hospital can refuse treatment. Residents might be charged for services (the reason for Resident Health Insurance Companies)

Non Cits only get very basic services and of course will be treated in medical emergencies, but pending on their situation they most likely get charged for it. Other health services are never free and require payment. (There are only a few Insurance Companies that cover Non Cits and these are quite expensive)

Health Services for Proto Citizens (kids,students etc who are to young for school or are in school) are treated like citizens.

Union Hospitals are all connected to Med Central and Hospital personnel is Federal Employed. Many positions are available for the 22 month citizen service and can turn into permanent positions.
