Re:Uber proposes policy that would pay drivers a minimum wag... by FireBeyond on Thursday August 29, 2019 @02:55PM (#20832500)
I guarantee you that EMTs definitely do NOT typically have very good health insurance, speaking as someone who has worked as one for multiple companies and as an educator in EMS in this region.

If you're talking fire department-based EMTs, then yes, but these make up a significant minority of EMTs who are often running on minimum wage and often given the bare minimum of health insurance.

Well, I suppose "good health insurance" is subjective, but keep in mind we're comparing this to no health insurance.
