Upgrading all the Chicago fire department ambulances - Which means you can expect large ambulance fee raises next

Rahm Emanuel planning to upgrade care on city ambulance fleet, sources say
It looks like Chicago’s 11-year foray into a two-tiered system of ambulance care may be coming to an end. Sources said Mayor Rahm Emanuel is preparing to phase out the city’s 15 basic life support ambulances and switch them all to advanced life support.

Here are the current rates for Chicago Fire Department Ambulance Fees:

Basic life support: $725.00 ... Advanced life support II: $1025.00

If the city upgrades all BASIC LIFE SUPPORT AMBULANCES to ADVANCE LIFE SUPPORT AMBULANCES....

ALL AMBULANCE FEES WOULD BE INCREASED TO $1025.00

And the Mayor won't call it an increase because you are now getting a ADVANCE LIFE SUPPORT AMBULANCE even if you don't need it....
