Lilia Cervantes, of the University of Colorado, Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, noted that roughly 180 to 200 undocumented patients in Colorado find themselves critically ill in the emergency department each week in need of emergency dialysis. In February 2019, Colorado opted to expand access to dialysis to undocumented immigrants with kidney failure. Since then, 20 states have passed similar laws.
