Abstract

Ambulance fees vary with the level of service and length of the beneficiary's trip. New fee schedule is expected to trim Medicare spending. Higher fees have been implemented for rural transports and air ambulance services. Lower fees have been implemented for urban transports. Providers and suppliers must revise chargemasters, policies, and procedures.
