From Tradeoffs: Can the U.S. put an end to surprise ambulance bills?

from The Readout Loud · host STAT

From our reporting partners at Tradeoffs: Congress banned most surprise medical bills back in 2020, with one major exception: ambulance rides. Most people agree that patients should be shielded from these unexpected charges. But who should pick up the tab instead? This week, as state and federal policymakers grapple with that question, we delve into why finding a fair solution is harder than you’d think. You can also check out our STAT story for more information.  Note: This episode has been re-uploaded after technical difficulties.
