I mean, they would deliver the baby. That's how healthcare generally does work - even in the US - for emergency situations. Only issue is, if you won't answer any questions, they'll probably keep the baby, for a number of arguably good reasons. Human trafficking, for starters.
When you finally sign the forms you need to sign to convince the hospital to let you have the baby, then you will get hit with the horrifying dystopian medical debt. Or you will pay (almost) nothing if you live in any sane society.
If you pull a screaming squishy blob out of the vagina of an equally screaming, slightly less squishy blob, I think it's pretty obvious who the squishy blob belongs to. If there is abuse of some kind, there is almost certainly other signs (defensive behavior, unexplained injuries, uncomfortable relationship dynamics, etc) that beg medical questions and don't necessarily rely on getting information like socioeconomic status or personal beliefs.
You wildly misunderstand human trafficking and abuse. The motherhood is not in question - the safety of the mother and their child is the primary concern, and should not be assessed by vibes alone. Questions and forms exist for a reason, and they're not all just for insurance.
Defensive behavior? Do you mean like refusing to answer any and all questions? Even the mother herself can be complicit in human trafficking of the child, for the record. Either in defense of her life or her other family members, or because it was her choice to traffic the child to begin with.
The post didn't specify socieconomic questions. It said any questions. And besides, socioeconomic and personal questions can absolutely be medical questions, especially when an infant is involved.
Questions like "can you provide habitable shelter for this infant? Do you have access to medical care in the event of an emergency? Do you believe that a newborn can drink unpasteurized cow's milk?"
