“Hey, I just know what the owner of the company is telling me in the article about his business.”

Well, actually you know what the ‘reporter’ told you the owner of the business said, which may be very different that what he actually said.
Daughter was a flight nurse at the time and it was a honor paid to her by the base commander. Lo and behold though the crew did get a call for an accident about a mile away.
Although the article was written in “novo-journalist muddle”, I think the owner was saying that the amount of paperwork required because of CommieCare over the last few years plus the calculated slow to non-payment caused him to go out of business.

Major ambulance service shuts down without notice in six states
A private ambulance service that transported more than a half-million patients a year in six states abruptly shut down without explanation, leaving dozens of cities and towns scrambling for medical transportation options this week without a word of warning.
First Med EMS, based in Wilmington, N.C., served hospitals and other medical facilities in more than 70 municipalities in Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia.

I am certain that he did say it. Probably kept repeating it but the editor wouldn’t allow his party to take the heat for laying off all those people.
My next one is going to be, “If you can hear the shot, you aren’t the target.”
Locally a political hack got a contract with the VA to transport patients. He botched the business.
He then ran for state representative and won. He lasted one term.
This year he ran for State Senate and got blown away.
In don’t know anyone who ever made money with a VA contract.
