• concluding that, notwithstanding Congress’s focus on patient dumping, an individual’s financial status plays no part in determining the reach of subsection (a)

• holding that “EMTALA does not create a cause of action for medical malpractice”
• holding that liability under § 1395dd(a) can attach “regardless of motive”
• explaining that “faulty screening, in a particular case . . . does not contravene the statute”
