A health care practitioner or health care institution that provides emergency health care on a Good Samaritan basis is not liable for damages caused by that care except for willful or wanton negligence or more culpable misconduct. For purposes of this section, care is provided on a Good Samaritan basis if it is not provided for or in expectation of remuneration. Being entitled to remuneration is relevant to, but is not determinative of, whether it is provided for or in expectation of remuneration.
