I had to be ambulanced to a California hospital December 2018 and the cost was $1500.00.

Is that supposed to be better? (Real question)

Not at all; just trying to put a realistic # to this post. I'm unsure what state the person who post this is from but I would shiver to think it would actually be $5000.00.

Ambulances (in America) are usually owned by 3rd party companies and not affiliated with hospitals. Just like with anything medical related and not covered by insurance, out-of-pocket costs can differ wildly depending who you use. My grandma (in SoCal) needed an ambulance and it cost almost $3,800 (her insurance paid most, but still) and that was 10 years ago. I'm sure prices have only gone up. She passed 7 years ago and no ambulances have been summoned since, so I could be wrong.

I fell and broke my ankle 3 weeks ago. Daughter called ambulance. 40 min drive to nearest hospital (I live on a farm well outside town). Overnight stay in hospital. Pain killers, plaster, x-rays. Cost = $0.00. Why? Coz I live in Australia where we have free public health!
