Had a lady call the ambulance once, she was looking for a ride to her doctor’s appointment and was running late and thought we would be a good option to get her there on time. We advised her for us to just show up was a $500 charge and it was $5.50 a mile after that and if we did anything it would cost more. Plus if she wanted us to wait around and bring her back that would be another $250 plus the mileage. Her response was, a taxi cost less, I’m sure it does. We operated a 911 service and didn’t do transports and were not running a taxi service. We’d prefer to stay in service for real emergencies. She called us through our private line, not 911, so we priced the call out to deter her from calling us again. At the time our 911 services were free, but we accepted donations.
