- darth_avocado 4mo agoSF EMS is funded partially through the general fund and other bond measures, with additional billing to cover the rest. I believe it’s like $2K for a ride.
- dlcarrier 4mo agoMany fire departments in the US send bills, whether responding to medical emergencies or fires.
- sarchertech 4mo agoMany makes it seem like this is common. But it extremely uncommon in the US to get a bill after a fire. There are some rural volunteer fire departments that are funded through memberships and they will bill you if you aren’t a member. But these are not common.
