Delaware City Council hires firm to handle billing for its EMS services

Delaware City Council has selected a company for emergency medical services billing, a move that city staff have described as a way to make up more than $1 million in revenue for the city. Until this year, the county had handled the EMS reimbursement service, but the city has been working on finding a solution moving forward after the city said the county “unilaterally opted to end a decades-long mutual agreement” in a fact sheet. The city has selected Cincinnati-based Medicount Management, which also provides EMS billing services for several other townships in Delaware County. Medicount was selected from seven applicants to the city’s request for proposals. The company will handle the specialized billing services in exchange for a 4.75% share of revenue collected, as well as other fees the city would be responsible for such as credit card processing fees. City council is expected to consider the second reading of an ordinance establishing the city’s EMS billing policy at the Nov. 23 meeting. Billing for city residents – and people who work within the city – would only happen through insurance and generally people would not be billed for additional balances for the services, according to a fact sheet
