PREPARED BY: Suzanne Fuentes, Mayo

APPROVED BY: Greg Carpenter, City Manager �
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
During Strategic Planning in 2014, the City Council directed staff to change the policy related to fees
paid by residents related to ambulance transport. Prior to that time, residents with insurance were billed
for ambulance transport and the City accepted the amount covered by the individual's insurance. The
policy revision now in place requires residents to pay for the full fee amount, whether covered by
insurance or not. It should be noted that there are some specific exemptions for persons using Medi -Cal
insurance (California state health care program for certain individuals and families who are low income
and have limited resources, which prohibits co -pay billing) and Medicare insurance (the Federal health
insurance program for people 65 years or older and younger people with disabilities, which limits co-
pay billing).
A number of residents have raised concerns about the policy change and I would request that staff return
with a report back with details on how the fee is established and collected and how much additional
annual revenue has been collected as a result of the policy change.
