Ambulance Provider Payment Amendments

Summary

The bill creates a standardized "base rate" for ground ambulance transports that includes medication costs, sets a mileage rate, and requires health plans, employers and workers‑comp insurers to pay those amounts directly to providers. It also prohibits providers from balance‑billing patients and directs the Bureau of Emergency Medical Services to update the rates each year. The changes take effect July 1 2026 and aim to make ambulance billing more transparent and consistent.
