We got a $15,000 bill for my sisters 3 minute flight into Baptist South last year. A friend of ours who works as an EMT told us to call and refuse to pay and most of the time they will settle for a lower amount. Ended up only paying $2,000. They had already sent the helicopter before any other emergency personnel had arrived to see if it was necessary. They said that once the helicopter is on the way that she had to use it.
