Did he fly around the globe a couple times and then see a specialist in Switzerland? $46k is freaking ridiculous. The medical billing industry is out of freaking control. I fully understand the costs here, but I can rent a Helicopter ride for 60 minutes for $500. There's no way it should cost $46k for 3 hours of flight time. First thing I'd do is tell them that they either talk to you today or you contact your lawyer tomorrow and everything else is through your lawyer.
What does this have to do with medical billing? It’s the cost of transportation. Albeit an absurd cost.
Who makes the decision that a helicopter is needed? It’s not a doctor. It’s someone at the scene of the crash. If they call the helicopter when it’s not needed why should the patient be responsible?
Renting a helicopter and having a helicopter and helicopter medical crew on call 24/7 are two completely different things. You are smarter than that

Call a lawyer, now.
On the other hand, not many people are aware of this but someone mentioned an insurance from the company which covers a family. Why do that? The state of Maryland racks on an extra few bucks to everyone’s driver license which makes it completely covered if you have to be lifeflighted in that state. I don’t agree with most taxes or fees, but this seems better than just bankrupting people
