Medical Aid: HealthTap's free, public site is for education. We are not a referral service. Recommend that you contact your health insurance company to find out if that is a covered benefit and if it is, to get a list of their covered network hospitals in your area.

The closest: Time matters and going to the closest hospital so that you get stabilized, in case needed, may be life saving. If need to transfer you to a different hospital, it will be coordinated between the 2 facilities.
