Ambulance Transport Billing Information
Effective
date: November 1, 2007
The chart below shows fees for procedures performed during transport by Littleton Fire Rescue, including the base rates for Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Life Support (ALS), which is based on the seriousness of the illness/injury, and the procedures performed during transport. ALS cases include medical calls such as cardiac, stroke, or life threatening illness or injury. BLS cases include non-life-threatening injury or illness. The remainder of the chart shows charges assessed for specific interventions. Patients who are treated by Littleton Fire Rescue at the scene, but then transported by Rural Metro Ambulance will not be billed by Littleton Fire Rescue, but will receive a bill from Rural Metro. Patients who are treated at the scene and released will not be billed at all by Littleton Fire Rescue.
All medications used during care and transport will be billed in addition to the base charges shown below.
