Patient 'Imprisoned' at Kinshasa Hospital
from PRI's The World Oct 31, 2012 · host The World

That means if patients can't pay, they end up stuck in the hospital -- sometimes for weeks -- until a family member bails them out. Cindy Shiner of AllAfrica.com recently met one such patient at a hospital in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
