Is it illegal to call 120 if you are not sick?

Calling 120 without a medical condition is a clear offense. Whether it is harassing 120 or unreasonably occupying 120 pre-hospital emergency resources, it is a violation of China's public security administration punishment law.

Legal analysis

As we all know, although ambulances are a "standard" in hospitals, due to the limited number of ambulances, ambulances are a typical "scarce resource". In our daily life, when a patient encounters an emergency, critical, serious or other illness, or encounters an accident, the first reaction of the patient or family member is to dial 120, so that the hospital can quickly dispatch an ambulance and emergency personnel to come to first aid and transfer to the hospital for timely rescue. It can be said that the ambulance is not only responsible for the emergency transport of patients, but also the "life-saving vehicle" in the minds of patients.

Although ambulance is a scarce resource, in reality, there are still many people who encounter non-urgent, critical, serious and other diseases, and often think of dialing 120 and hoping that medical institutions will send an ambulance. Sometimes, it is clear that the condition of the patient who dials 120** is very mild, or there is no major problem at all, but the ambulance personnel and ambulances also have to "pick up ** and get out of the car", which is undoubtedly a waste of social and public resources. How to define "first aid" and "non-first aid" also requires the medical department to increase the popularization of relevant medical knowledge, so as to improve the judgment of the whole people on the condition and avoid falling into the misunderstanding of first aid.

All localities may wish to learn from and popularize Beijing's good practice of "no ambulance shall be called for non-first aid", and use limited first-aid resources on the "knife edge".
