It blows my mind that calling an ambulance could ever cost money.
When you need an ambulance, seconds could mean the difference between life and death.
Putting a decision in front of it that could financially ruin you or the person you're helping is absolutely bonkers.

Yep. I was 20 years old nearly living check to check. A medical bill of $1,000+ on top of the hundreds for the ER would've stung bad.

I live in Quebec. Our ambulances cost money too. Although they're less expensive than American ones (about 200 CAD).

And yeah, literally everyone thinks that's stupid.
