FREQUENTLY ASKED SUBSCRIPTION QUESTIONS

Q. Why should I become a subscriber?
A. Your subscription assures that Penndel-Middletown Emergency Squad will have the staff, vehicles and equipment required to provide around-the-clock protection for you and your family in the event of an emergency.

Q. If I have health insurance, do I need a subscription?
A. Yes. Your subscription assures that you will not incur any unnecessary bills for medically necessary emergency ambulance service to the closest appropriate facility, regardless of your insurance coverage. Most insurance companies do not pay 100% of total ambulance charges. Your subscription also covers any co-payments or deductibles. Keep in mind that nonsubscribers are responsible for full payment of all applicable charges, which often can exceed $800.00 per trip.

Q. How does Penndel-Middletown Emergency Squad get reimbursed if I am transported to the hospital?
A. In the event that you need ambulance service, Penndel-Middletown Emergency Squad will submit a bill to your insurance company. Insurance payments are then applied to your balance. Once your insurance benefits are exhausted, we write off any remaining balance. Subscribers do not have to pay any out-of-pocket expenses for emergency ambulance services - no matter how frequently you need our services.

Q. What should I do if my insurance company sends me a check for payment of services provided by Penndel-Middletown Emergency Squad?
A. Recipients of service are required to forward any and all reimbursements received to Penndel-Middletown Emergency Squad. Failure to do so will result in the termination of any subscription agreement and you will be held responsible for payment of all outstanding balances.

Q. When does my subscription expire?
A. Your paid subscription is valid from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011.

Q. Who is covered by a subscription?
A. Emergency medical care and transportation to a local hospital are provided to all residents of your household, whether we transport you from your home or elsewhere.
