(A) The city, through its billing agency, will seek reimbursement from third-party payers, including, but not limited to, liability insurance, automobile insurance, health care insurance, Medicare and Medicaid, to offset EMS operational costs. For qualifying individuals, the City Manager or designee may write off any or all balances remaining after receipt of third-party payments.
(B) Hardship cases will be determined by the City Manager or designee based on financial need, for applicants with incomes between 150% and 200% of the current federal poverty guideline, based on a review of the number of persons living in the household, the amount earned by the applicant, and the applicant’s living expenses, assets and debts.
