Reply to comment by Infinite_Carpenter in FDNY wants to up the cost of ambulance rides by more than 50% by NYY657545

Call the Attorney's General office. They got a $6K bill I received from a hospital reduced to $0 because it violated some law.

Also, don't have to call, you can fill out a form online and they will call you.

NY passed a bill earlier this year that prohibits surprise medical billing. If you are in a situation where you do not have control over which doctor ends up being your provider - say a hospital anesthesiologist - you are not on the hook for their bill.

The driver’s insurance paid it but that’s good to know.
