Jesus you guys are stoooopid.



Without any quote or context to your post, it's hard to reply
specifically but I am trying to remember if I've ever heard of an
instance when an EMT service refused to respond to an emergency and/or
transport someone to a hospital due to their insurance coverage (or lack
of).

Nope. I am 68 years old and I can't think of a single instance in my
adult life.



I've been hauled twice in the past couple years. Neither time was I asked
about insurance until I
got to the hospital. Don't know where he gets his bull****. Reckon he and
Harry read the same FPL
News.


You can always negotiate later. My dad slipped and dislocated a shoulder.
The ambulance company charged $500 for a 6 mile ride. This was in the
1980’s. My dad was covered by Blue Cross and Blue Cross went after the
ambulance company for over charging. If you have little money, they will
negotiate also.
