When you call 911 in Detroit, who pays?

Detroit pays three private ambulance companies up to $600,000 a year each to keep rigs on standby — and they can still bill patients for the ride. A council member calls it double-dipping. Detroit Documenters — the civic journalism corps that attends and documents public meetings across the region — pulled the contract and found it allows exactly that. The next deal goes to a council vote today.

Noah Kincade, coordinator for the Detroit Documenters, joins host Robyn Vincent to break it all down.
