Must be one expensive meal to be 1/20th the cost of an American ambulance.
$50 vs $1000, rough approximations
My last ambulance ride was $3,400. After insurance I was still on the hook for 1,700 iirc
Jesus Christ and y'all still live in the US??
The exact ratio depends entirely on the your personal limit for when you see a bill and say "Yup, definitely heart attack worthy"
