Runner hit by car receives surprise $12,872 ambulance bill due to out-of-network service.
In July 2023, 25-year-old runner Jagdish Whitten was hit by a car in San Francisco.
After initial treatment, he was transferred by ambulance to a trauma center, receiving a surprising $12,872.99 bill due to the ambulance being out-of-network.
Anthem Blue Cross denied the claim, citing a lack of pre-authorization.
Such surprise bills are common, as 80% of ground ambulance rides result in out-of-network billing, highlighting a need for better consumer protections.
