,'" Polanco said. "Everyone just kept saying don't worry about that, you
need medical help."
Emergency Medical Technicians arrived in 5 or 10 minutes Polanco said, and
the woman did agree to go with them.
The EMTs bandaged her leg and then took her away in a wheelchair.
"She couldn't walk, she couldn't stand, she couldn't do anything on the leg,
" Polanco said.
An incident report said the EMTs did not see any broken bones, but said she
would need surgery.
The woman has not been identified. She was taken to Boston Medical Center
for treatment.
Health care costs vary widely and with the details of the woman's condition
unavailable, it's difficult to say how much transporting her and treating
her injury would cost. A 2012 federal investigation found the median
ambulance cost per ride was between $224 and $2,204. |
