Hang on, do you not even have ambulances in burger land?
there's ambulances, they average out to about ~$1500 a ride of you're uninsured, about $500 if you have insurance.
also, there's a good chance that your insurance isn't contracted with that specific ambulance company, so you also run the risk of having insurance and getting a gigantic non-covered bill anyways.
most people will call a cab to take them to the hospital these days, or just die, as the system seems designed to encourage.
i still can't wrap my head around the idea that being insured in the US means you get a discount on health services
Jfc man
:yea:
