Why Does AMR Require Signature Authorization Before Treatment and Transport?
All patients are required to provide signatures that acknowledge consent for treatment and transportation. With a signature on file, this provides AMR with authorization to submit a bill on their behalf, assign their benefits to AMR allowing their medical insurance carrier to pay AMR directly, and is used as an acknowledgment showing the patient did receive a copy of AMR’s Privacy Policy. AMR cannot submit a claim to a medical insurance carrier without a signed authorization from the patient or guardian. Failure to provide a signed authorization may require AMR to seek payment directly from the patient or guarantor.
