No subsidy, these are for private ambulances and a result of real competition.
Using an average wage in the US to be double of Europe I'd say $200 for an ambulance ride in the US is a reasonable price.
Also an ambulance ride is like 20-30mins tops and within a day there can easily be 4-5 calls in a larger city - that's more than enough to be profitable.
