About EmergyCare's Membership Program

Membership Brochure

In a true medical emergency, should you require transport by EmergyCare, your EmergyCare membership can reduce costs not covered by your insurance carrier, such as deductibles and co-payments.  If medically necessary EmergyCare emergency transport services are used, we will bill the patient's insurance company, and as a member, you will receive a membership discount for any coinsurance, deductibles, and uncovered costs for medically necessary emergency EmergyCare ambulance transport.   Most insurance plans don't cover the full costs of ambulance transport. Without a membership, you will be billed for the full costs of co-pays, deductibles, or remaining balances after your insurance is billed.

EmergyCare is a non-profit organization. Your membership and charitable contributions are vital to helping us provide the highest quality care possible.

EmergyCare has gone from providing basic life support (BLS) services to the City of Erie in 1983 to providing advanced life support (ALS) care to a vast region of northwestern Pennsylvania today. As a result, EmergyCare is one of the largest non-profit ambulance services in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, covering more than 2,100 square miles and protecting approximately 300,000 lives. The operations team consists of roughly 200 wheelchair transporters, EMTs, AEMTs, paramedics, prehospital RNs, and 72 vehicles, including 37 ambulances stationed in Corry, Erie, Greenville, Titusville, North Warren, and Kane, Pennsylvania. Organization-wide, EmergyCare responds to over 70,000 calls annually.
