Followers of California TikToker Robby were shocked when they saw he spent $1,264 calling an ambulance for his daughter.
Robby, a California TikToker, left his followers shocked after revealing he spent $1,264 calling an ambulance to save his daughter’s life.
The total bill amounted to $2,342. Insurance covered $1,078, while Robby paid the rest. Had he not had insurance, he would have needed to pay $600.
According to KFF, an independent health policy research source, health insurance premiums in 2024 averaged $8,951 for an individual and $25,572 for a family.
The California TikToker criticized the state for “penalizing citizens who have insurance.” In the video, the insurance agent explains that the charge is due to a new law that offers a discount to people without insurance.
“What’s the point of having insurance if it doesn’t cover anything when you need it?” commented one user. “What kind of country is this?” protested another. “$2,300? Do you buy the ambulance?” sarcastically commented another user.
