Conservative Health critic Margaret Ann Blaney is calling out the Health Minister on placing the 130 dollar fee back on ambulance service. Mike Murphy say the number of people using ambulances rose dramatically when the fees were eliminated–and–attributes that to people abusing the service. Blaney tells CHSJ News the minister has no data on how many calls were for actually taxi service.
Blaney says the fees should be removed so that seniors and those on low incomes won’t suffer–and–government should be focusing on weeding out those who are really abusing ambulance service.
