Basic transport calls are utilized for routine transportation and can include oxygen administration and cardiac monitoring if needed. Advanced transportation services could include IV administration, EKGs and suction, etc when deemed medically necessary.
**Bariatric Patients may need additional assistance and will incur an extra charge for additional EMT's.Once you have scheduled a transport a minimum of 24 hours prior to your appointment, you can expect 2 Licensed Emergency Medical Technicians {EMT's} to arrive at your pickup address within 10 to 15 minutes of your requested pick up time. The EMT's will take your Blood Pressure and Heart Rate and ask you a few questions for documentation purposes. They will also document a general assessment of your health based on visual observation.
Since you will be traveling by stretcher, you will be transferred to the stretcher by assisted ambulation or 2 man direct lift.
You will be loaded into the ambulance and one EMT will ride with you in the back of the ambulance to your destination. During the transport they may take your vitals a second time. Once at the destination you will be brought into the building and assisted off of the stretcher. The receiving facility will be required to sign a transfer of care form. If you have made arrangements for the ambulance to transport you home they will arrive at the designated time.
Some destinations like Dialysis, Wound Care and Chemotherapy are covered by most insurances. Please be sure to check with your insurance to verify if in fact they cover these services. If these services are not covered you will be billed and responsible for the charges.
