I am an Emt in Alabama and as much as we would like to say no,it is against the law.If they call 911 I am required by law to transport that person to the hospitol,to not do so is abandonment.However ,noone said that once you get to the hospitol you can't put them out in triage where they will be seen according to their priority.The reason alot of people do not go POV is because they think if they come in by ambulance they will be seen faster.So the problem falls on legal systems and the receiving facility,you are obligated.
