If I don’t have health insurance, can any other types of insurance pay for ambulance service? Many automobile insurance policies and homeowners’ insurance policies provide some form of coverage if the insured was injured and required transport by ambulance. We recommend that citizens review their insurance coverage to verify their limits of coverage under each policy. In speaking with the billing contractors, they routinely bill health insurance first, followed by auto insurance and lastly any other form of insurance. How much revenue will be generated by the Ambulance Fee for Service program? Staff has estimated that approximately $300,000 to $400,000 in revenue may be generated for the full first fiscal year. Won’t people hesitate in calling for emergency services if they can’t pay or if they’re uninsured?
