March 2, 2021 6:10 AM By Brandon Lee Ambulance companies are seeking a major victory as Senate Democrats consider whether to allow Medicare to pay them as emergency responders in the field. The proposed change, which may be added to the Covid-19 relief package the Senate is expected to take up later this week, would empower the Department of Health and Human Services to temporarily pay ambulance providers for services they deliver to Medicare beneficiaries outside a hospital. Ambulances are generally paid by Medicare only to deliver patients to an emergency room currently. If a patient refuses to go to a hospital, which ambulance companies say is increasingly common as people are wary of health-care facilities during the pandemic, ambulances responding to a call often recoup no reimbursement from Medicare.
