RESCUE Act Could Revamp Ambulance Reimbursements | Dallas News
Description
A new bipartisan bill, the RESCUE Act, could revolutionize Medicare ambulance reimbursements—stuck since 1998 and wildly out of sync with today’s costs. With labor expenses doubled and advanced tech like real-time monitoring now standard, outdated rates force companies to absorb massive losses. This financial squeeze stifles investment, pay, and service expansion—especially in high-Medicare areas. The RESCUE Act would mandate triennial rate updates based on current costs and tech, ensuring fair compensation and better access for patients who need it most.
