        Because it will cost way less then any ambulance ride. A city ambulance ride will cost about a$1000 if you don’t have insurance or $300 co-pay if you have insurance. Uber or Lyft will cost less than $25

        If you’re not dying, it makes sense. It won’t cost you $6,000 either.

        Yep insurance plays cat and mice games if you need an ambulance. This is risky for children and adults with asthma. I once had a terrible asthma attack and went to Urgent Care but they were going to send me to the hospital. Nurse told me my insurance no pay, so I drove myself.

        Last time I had to take an ambulance that wasn't life-or-death (broke thumb & finger, couldn't shift my car) it cost me $1,000. ER is 5 blocks away.

        Now that's just stupid! You think Uber drivers are equipped or trained to handle an emergency? However, since a lot of insurances don't cover ambulance and paramedics, I can see why.
