The American Red Cross is a nonprofit, tax-exempt, charitable organization. The American Red Cross isn't a federal agency, so they do not receive regular federal funding to carry out their services. They get their money from public voluntary contributions and from cost-recovery charges they have for their services, such as health and safety training courses they offer. There are times though that the federal government contracts with the American Red Cross and provides material and aid assistance to support the Red Cross at times.

This policy greatly helped sculpt emergency medicine and public health. By giving the right to the patient to have emergency medical treatment required without proof of insurance or payment, astronomically influenced the amount of patients being turned away and their possibilty of developing worse illnesses or dying. In a paper I read, a young doctor in the late 70s and early 80s remembers watching a woman in labor give birth in the doorway of the hospital and proceed to borht her child in the parking lot after being turned away for not having insurance. By requiring hospitals and doctors to see that all ED patients get care, no patient was at risk of dying or complicating their baby's health and birth due to a lack of insurance, ultimately increasing public health efforts. Not all hospitals turned away their patients, but enough did to make it a public health concern and get Congress involved. EMTALA changed emergency medicine protocols but also public health expectations and actions.
