Private health insurers can legally avoid ambulance bills because corpses are not considered patients, a loophole that left a grieving widow shocked.

I did not know this. The ambulance situation is a shambles and wildly differs from state to state and in what your health insurance provider (if you have one) may not make you aware of. The article includes a comparison of all states’ ambulance services.
