Advocacy
Thank you to everyone who contacted their federal legislators about Medicare Ambulance Add-on Payments.
On March 14, the United States Senate passed the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025 (H.R. 1968). This law extends the current temporary Medicare ambulance add-on payments, which expire on September 30. President Trump is expected to sign this bill.
Please remember that this is only a temporary solution.
EmergyCare is proud to be a member of the American Ambulance Association (AAA). The AAA will keep pushing for a long-term extension of the add-on payments to higher levels: 3.4% for urban areas, 4.3% for rural areas, and 26.7% for super rural areas.
