WHY DOES AMBULANCE SERVICE COST SO MUCH? |
Emergency Ambulance Service
is committed to providing top-notch quality medical care and ambulance
service to the residents of the communities we serve. Each city council or county board of
supervisors establish the maximum fees ambulance service providers may charge
in each of our service areas. These
fees are based on the costs each ambulance provider incurs to provide
service. Some of the costs of the
provision of service include: response readiness, personnel staffing and
training, vehicle / equipment replacement and maintenance, dispatching
services, billing functions, administration and percentage of indigent care
provided. |
