Pretty poor for the ambulance co and the rest to send this guy a bill but that's what they do ..they assume you have insurance. they should be forced to give an estimate of the cost. I was told my wife needed to be airlifted of course I said OK. I beat the helicopter to the hospital by five minutes.....Bill over $8,000. No More!!!

“Bill over $8,000.”

Hope everything turned out okay.

6 weeks ago my grandson fell off a 35’ rock cliff near Angels Camp (Yosemite area). His face broke the fall on the rocks below. The rescue team could not reach him from the ground so they had to be lowered into the ravine and ‘basket’ the boy out and airlifted to the nearest hospital in Modesto.

Cost of the rescue totaled $23,000! Thankfully, his insurance covered all but $400.00.
