They have been doing this for years. An an ER RN I know, have seen it hundreds of times. All first responders do it as well!
BTW, Oswego Hospital Administration encourages, otherwise Insurances cannot be billed.
I am n emt and I take offense to the post suggesting that WE (EMT”S) all do it. The ER RN is worng and those kind of statements are what makes for bad working relationships between hospital and EMS/Rescue personnel.
