Message The answer is "because they can get away with it."
Get away with transferring the cost of medically transporting their constituents to payers outside that community. Imagine the local budget savings of not maintaining and staffing a ground ambulance service for your community. And all you have to do is saddle your local taxpayers with a $40K helicopter bill when their condition was appropriate for a ground transport for only a few $K.
