INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Is it true that a new emergency medical rescue helicopter costs millions of dollars?
Unclear. Several sources describe helicopter emergency medical services as costly and one notes the purchase of new modern HEMS helicopters, but none of the retrieved items states an actual acquisition price, so the claim that a new rescue helicopter costs millions of dollars is only partially supported.
