What happens if I call an ambulance for an old dear who's collapsed in the street? Will she get presented with a bill for hundreds that she probably can't pay?
Should I be asking people first if they can afford an ambulance... and if not just let them croak in the street?

The elderly get free ambulance cover in WA, perhaps they do in other states too.

All I know is in WA they do, I would assume that to be the same for all of Australia as this is usually government funded but that would be up to the individual to check out for the area they live in and not to rely on assumptions
