A “pro-tip” for anyone concerned with preferential treatment in the ER. Take an ambulance, regardless of your symptoms, the priory is to get the EMS crew back on the street and you’ll be given a spot quicker than someone in the waiting room who has the same symptoms as you.

Yes waste everyone's time and drive up the cost of medical care for everyone because you are entitled and can't wait. Remember the ER is not first come first serve its based on how sick you are. If you are waiting a long time you should thank God you are not as sick as the people that need to be seen before you.

People already treat ambulances like taxis, too late. Ask anyone that works in an ER or any EMS worker.

My point is it’s not exclusively “rich” people that get perceived special treatment.
