U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance criticized hospitals that provide interpreters for people who do not speak English. He cited an experience in an emergency room where he said he saw about nine interpreters, and suggested hiring doctors instead if everyone spoke English. More than 8% of the U.S. population—around 25 million people—have limited English proficiency, while studies show that medical interpreting services improve care and reduce health disparities and errors.
