If you’re being facetious: this is a good thing. It doesn’t solve all problems but it’s a damn good start. No need to get critical about a pretty damn big step in the right direction, especially considering those starting this initiative in a local setting can’t change the healthcare system nationwide.
If you’re serious: admittedly (and thankfully) I haven’t had to take an ambulance, but when my daughter was born the deductible on our high-deductible plan (after which point all care is covered for the calendar year) was a fair amount under that. The system sucks, but that’s not how it works either.
Which juuuuuuuust might cover the ride in an ambulance to go give birth (not the birth itself, just the ride).
