<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />PREFACE <br /> <br />City Council is asked to consider an Ordinance establishing a new <br />rate structure for Emergency Medical Services. The Ordinance <br />would restructure the rates charged for services from itemized to <br />a flat rate of $100.00 for transportation to fac il it ies wi thin <br />fifteen (15) miles from point of pick up to destination. A flat <br />rate of $125.00 shall be charged for transportation to facilities <br />outside of fifteen (15) miles from point of pick up to <br />destination. <br /> <br />The EMS Division will begin to accept Medicare assignment for <br />senior citizens. The new rate structure is estimated to generate <br />sufficient revenue to balance out the 20% loss occured through <br />Medicare assignment. <br /> <br />The Administration recommends City Council approve this Ordinance. <br />
