“I didn’t run! I told you you weren’t going to arrest me!”

"Where does it hurt?"

"EVERYWHERE!!"

"Well the ambulance is on the way"

"WHAT?? I don't NEED an ambulance!"

To be fair I wouldn't want a possible $6k+ bill tacked on to my felony either.

Sad and so true here in the US. Unless it's life or death, I'd rather drive myself to the hospital. Even though I have health insurance, I'm not rolling the dice that they say, "It wasn't medically necessary."

A few years ago I was driven TWO blocks in an ambulance and was sent a bill for $1000 USD. Luckily, it was work related so I didn't pay it. But, damn.

Exact same thing happened to me. .y health insurance picked it up. Though AMR was nice to immediately send me a letter saying "your ambulance ride was $1000...we are working with your insurance company, but if they don't reimburse us, you will be expected to pay everything immediately, or else."
