Geotagging gone wrong

I was in Savannah, GA earlier this week and I popped my hotel address into Waze.  As I was driving to my hotel I hit a fairly long red light and looked down at my Waze.  I had a pop up for some medical center which was advertising the shortest wait times for ER care.  I thought it was a very weird thing to advertise as you generally only go to the ER in an Emergency so would probably either call 911 or just put hospital into Waze or Google Maps.  I am not sure what the cost to advertise on Waze is but I'm fairly certain this was not money well spent.  Especially as when I got back to my hotel I wanted to write the name down so I could include it in my blog but had already forgotten it.
