Perhaps a better policy would be to fully charge for such rescue incidents. They already bill people for things like this, especially since it involes ambulance or helicopter transport. As the article says, what precipitated this new policy was that firefighters were being sickened and taken out of service as a result of these unnecessary rescues. That endangers not just the firefighters, but the rest of the community as well.
