You probably meant to use significant. Magnificent is something of great beauty. I don’t think them stealing EMTs wage is beautiful but maybe you do so am not gonna judge you. /s /jk
Many years ago I was run over by a car, the charge of the ambulance was $800 USD, the total hospital bill for the 4 hours I was in “observation” was $28,000. I did not have medical insurance at that time.
This reminded me, does anyone know what the profit margin on ambulance trips are? They must surely be outrageous, but to what degree?

Oh daddy, overcharge me for your goods and services!
They don’t pay them minimum wage here, think it starts at $18 whereas min wage is 7.50 I think.
They do rip people off though

How is that possible. A single accident and you’re in debt for life ?
Man people always complain about this but it’s super easy to get out of these without paying nearly as much.
Call and ask for an itemized bill.
Get bill 3 months later and see the price hasn’t changed
Call and ask about a payment plan
3b. Make less than $10k a year so you qualify
4b. Go back and get health insurance that doesn’t have a $12k deductible
4c. Go back and get health insurance that has a low deductible and actually covers at least half of your treatment
It’s really that easy.
