I've sadly been to hospital via ambulance quite a lot for seizure activity and that kinda carrying on. The biggest bill was when I received my $54 bill for the ambulance! Oh no. (St John is a volunteer ambulance service). So, I went and paid it and then paid them $80 for an annual househould membership - meaning if anyone in my house ever needs an ambulance, it's free!
I'm aware however, with the rescue helicopters there can sometimes be complications because at the end of the day, someone needs to pay - but as an accident, everything's covered under ACC anyways.

- newyankee 8y agoWow, the more i read, the more difficult it is for me to believe. At this point i feel that the US healthcare industry is the biggest rent extraction industry in the world and they try to get away with it to the extent they can with every stakeholder blaming someone else. I have lived here for 9 years and although have paid my insurance diligently i always get anxiety at going to the doctor's office.
