I think the idea is that if it's mandated, then the ambulance should be covered by some kind of insurance since it was medically necessary and not just Ol' Bob, the hypochondriac, calling because his tin foil hat fell off.

Except that's not how it works. Ambulances are almost always out-of-network, so subject to MUCH higher OOP expenses. It's spelled out in the article.
