While ground ambulances can be regulated, Guy Dansie, emergency medical services program manager for the Utah Department of Health, points out that air ambulances fly right over state jurisdictions — and therefore are subject to little if any oversight, even if the company that operates them is based in Utah. The companies also don't have to share cost information with the public or state regulators, he says.
(from the Salt Lake Tribune)
If down a steep canyon I dive,
don't worry if I will survive.
I'd rather not live
with debt like a shiv
that's stuck in my back, tho I thrive.
