Wait, first of all, what’s the incidence of calling EMS for falls over almost a decade, I think like 2007 to 2016, and what happens to people afterwards? So what we found is up to 30% of people would call 911 again for a fall, and of those calls, some people became very high-utilizers and so they would call 911 over and over again.
