However, there is no way in hell that from the time the helicopter crew got the call to the point that they landed at the trauma hospital resulted in $46,000 of expenses.


I’m not saying you are wrong, but I don’t think you are looking at it the right way.

The helicopter company has to pay many highly trained nurses (CRNAs) and pilots to be on call 24/7 whether they fly or not. And they pay them many multiples of their normal salaries.

Maybe the problem is that there aren’t enough flights? Just a thought

If you have to pay all these highly trained people to just sit and wait, as well as helicopter maintenance. And you rarely take a flight... it’s going to be expensive when you do

I don’t think I’m looking at it wrong at all.

Is an ER patient billed directly for the time the ER is staffed when they were not there?
