I had to call an ambulance in Switzerland where ambulance prices are freely set by the operator (except in a few cantons which are enforcing reasonable flat rates)

A 5 minutes ride cost 1500.- (more or less the same in USD)

Because I had used a good broker to pick my insurance plan, I was left with “only” 500.- to pay out of pocket for the ride.

In Quebec, as a resident, going 3 blocks in the ambulance cost us about 500 CAD if I remember correctly.
