EMTs have volunteers?

I unfortunately know someone who owns a metro company and that twat is rolling in cash, dude took 700k in ppp money and it was forgiven

EMTs having volunteers?!? that makes me beyond pissed

I'd rather have arranged something myself. But of course she was getting the boot that day, the day after hip surgery. So any additional days "might" not be covered.

This was end of last year maybe into this year. My dad passed a few years ago and dealt with similar issues and it wasn't as bad. Certainly has gotten way worse since the annoying orange took over.

Heard stories of uninsured elderly patients without the ability to pay just being dropped off at homeless shelters with IV bags still attached. Skilled nursing facilities getting denies for coverage.

Shortly after she got there I had to do two appeals. She got denied as soon as she arrived. I ended up paying a portion out of pocket at like $300 a day. The rehab team wrote letters, I had them do a home inspection to prove it was unsafe. Still got denied over and over. They wear you down by denying first than hoping you don't appeal.

Finally gave in even though she wasn't as safe. Had to send her back to the hospital again in 2-days because she couldn't get up to even pee and got a UTI.

Anyhow it was royally fucked. She ended up dying from cancer in the next few months. They found that came back very aggressively during her UTI stay.

Still have collectors asking for that nursing home stay and transportation. They can eat my ass, that'll come out of her estate if anything is actually leftover.

Sorry this is long, just venting.

I had no idea this was a thing, got a link for donation?

Does Uber have cleaning fees like AirB&B now?

Dunno, i don't use destructive us-american companies :)

But "0" is cheaper than A LOT of things. E.g. DDR5-RAM

It looks like there was a new law passed in 2022 i wasn't aware of but billers have found loopholes to bill after the fact for larger amounts.

I've taken an ambulance and after whatever insurance covered my bill was over 5k. A few years ago, my sister had a fall outside and was unconscious and an ambulance was called. She had a bill for close to 10k.

There are a lot of private ambulance companies that charge different rates and different hospitals have different rates so a lot of the time it depends on who picks you up.
