EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES - REQUEST TO ORANGE THE BASE PEE
FOR OXYGEN TO $235.001 Mr. Al Upton, EMS Director, presented this
to the board. In January 1995 Medicare modified their
reimbursement program. The County was put into Group 4 because the
County charges separately for oxygen on an ambulance trip. This
resulted in a reduction of $53 per call in the charges. After
consultation with Medicare people, the County elected to go with
Group 2 to keep the customary charge for oxygen. In Group 2 all
charges, including oxygen, have to be inclusive except for mileage
outside the county. The department must bill all patients the
same --those paying with Medicaid and those paying with private
insurance or other means. Mr. Upton is proposing that instead of
charging extra for oxygen they add $20 to the base fee and not bill
anyone for oxygen.
MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to approve the fee change to
$235 and discontinue the separate billing for oxygen.
VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.
