Ambulance operator on how to suck money from patient
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Hit with $800 ambulance bill
The Chngs wanted to send their 92-year-old mother to the hospital.
So they called the 1-777 Non-Emergency Ambulance Service (NEAS) last month.
An ambulance operator quoted them $180 and some additional charges for the trip.
But at the end of the 30-minute ride from their home in Choa Chu Kang to Singapore General Hospital, the family was hit with an $800 bill.
Some of the add-ons on the bill included $150 for oxygen, $80 for bandages and $200 for painkillers.
The private ambulance operator, Singapore Medical Care Training and Services, has since been suspended by the NEAS Quality Committee.
