I believe this would be perfect for transporting Automated external defibrillators (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_external_defibrillator http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_external_defibrillato...) to people with heart problems immediately.
These have to be provided very quickly in order to maximize chance of survival. If someone saw a person collapse in a city he could call an Ambulance, and a drone with one of them attached would be sent to the location of the phone via GPS. The people there could then use the machine to attempt to save the persons life. This should be way faster than ambulances, especially in cities, and in the face of saving lives the cost would be negligible.
EDIT: Ah, urgent medical supplies are mentioned in the end of the article. I really hope this works out!
