What can I expect by subscribing?
- Your ambulance membership permits us to write-off 50% of your out-of-pocket expenses including deductibles and co-payments that you would be responsible for in the event you need our services. Most insurance companies, including Medicare, require their members to pay a portion of their ambulance bills. That amount could range from $300.00 to $1,200.00. By participating in the membership program, it will greatly reduce your out-of-pocket expenses.
- Participants of State Medicaid Programs are not eligible for membership and NorthWest EMS is required to accept reimbursement as payment in full.
- Non-Emergency Ambulance transportation is subject to Medicare's rules regarding Medical Necessity Certification and often require pre-certification from a physician or pre-approval from your health insurance company. A Customer Service Representative from NorthWest EMS will be able to assist you further in this process.
