Like you're presumably unconscious and at no point ever consent to be liable for the cost, and yet people get billed. It's like if someone just came and did a bunch of work on your house when you were asleep and then sent you a bill.

Like, just wack. It's like if you passed out in Walmart and an employee put a cell phone in your pocket, took your money, then gave you a receipt, and people were like "hmm yes that's legit"

It's free in my country. The same with the medical care you receive: is free.

It's not free in Canada, which is always a fun thing to explain. A little over $100. Unless you're being transported between facilities, then it's free (to the patient).

My brother in laws bill was nearly 300 bucks for the ambulance, and i'm still not sure how a 15 minute ride cost that much in 2005.
