Ambulance costs can get be costly.
When I had my heart attack I was taken by ambulance to the closest hospital and then it was determined I needed to go to a cardiac hospital for specialized treatment. I got billed for the full amount of the 2nd ambulance trip which was by the local FD. It was only $800. The first ambulance, a town contracted company, was covered by my insurance minus the deductable ($150) but not the 2nd. Insurance in most cases will not cover an ambulance from one hospital to another.
