When Americans travel do other cultures treat them as victims of abuse? Because that's what this sounds like.

Absolutely not. What happened in this story is absolutely normal over here, regardless if the person is from the USA, France or just around the corner. The cost of calling an ambulance is fully covered by insurance as is all other essential healthcare. Worst that can happen is that you have to pay 20€ for the trip to the hospital to discourage people from using ambulances as taxis.

For an extreme example, someone from my family had breast cancer a few years back and the largest item on her bill for over two years of treatment was a few bucks for the food she got at the hospital.
