A Denver couple billed nearly $2,000 for an ambulance ride next door won't have to pay anything after their Contact Denver7 story aired
In February, Mary and Alvin Gordy almost lost hope they would resolve a surprise bill for a surprisingly short ambulance ride.
Mary Gordy said they have insurance through Cigna, and their explanation of benefits was clear: They would not have to pay anything. "Ultimately, consumers end up being blindsided when they get these bills," said Adam Fox, deputy director of the Colorado Consumer Health Initiative. "I think the biggest question is what does that solution look like? And ultimately, how quickly do we see that solution?" Fox said."I will say that we are also looking at the state level. Are there ways that we can sort of help fill the gap a bit further at the state level?"
