As much as i like the idea of more medic's on the street; I hope that eugene does not go private with ambulance service. They had a private service until the early eighties. that did not end well. They were caught holding the bag with about 24 hours notice. I realize that payment's from insurance are not what they once were but you make provisions in your budget. Do not put all of your egg's in one basket Do not go private in all of your ambulance service. It did not work before and there's a chance it wont again.
