REPORTS
Mr. Fred Drew, Director, Emergency Medical Services
(EMS), presented report regarding Greater Bakersfield Ambulance
Service Boundary - Emergency 9-1-1 calls as follows:
Honorable Mayor and City Council Members.
I am pleased to report to you this evening
that the ambulance service area boundary
issue for the greater Bakersfield area has
been resolved. This resolution was
outlined in detail for you in the letter
dated September 7, 1989, which is part of
your agenda packet. This agreement was
reached primarily because of the
flexibility shown by the ambulance
providers in the negotiation process and
because of their sincere desire to move
forward with the overall EMS system.
The agreed-upon boundary meets the
objectives set by the EMS Department in
that it provides Hall Ambulance with 55% of
the emergency 9-1-1 calls and Golden Empire
Ambulance with 45% of the emergency 9-1-1
calls and results in more consolidated
response zones for each company. These
revised service zones will become effective
December 1, 1989, and will remain in effect
for a two-year period, ending January 31,
1992, after which they will be reviewed
every two years. My recommendation on this
issue will go to the Board of Supervisors
for approval next Tuesday, September 19,
1989.
Bakersfield, California, September 13, 1989 Page 6
One of the overall primary goals through
the process was to maintain ambulance
services at the highest possible level. It
became apparent that a corollary and
directly related issue, to the boundary
issue, was ambulance rates, especially when
considering the level of service being
provided. Ambulance providers within Kern
County and the City of Bakersfield took the
lead years ago to upgrade pre-hospital
service to the paramedic level. In order
to maintain that excellent level of
service, the issue of rates now comes to
the forefront.
The EMS Department encourages the
Bakersfield City Council to approve the
previous recommendation made by the
Council's Budget and Finance Committee for
the ambulance rate increase. It is
believed that additional compensation is
appropriate at this time, since there has
not been an increase in over two years and
in reviewing the current rates and level of
service in comparison with other
communities.
A statewide comparison made one year ago of
current rates (both regulated and
non-regulated) within the greater
Bakersfield area is shown at Enclosure One
(Basic Life Support BLS) and Enclosure
Two (Advanced Life Support - ALS). The
comparison shows the regulated rates to be
in the lower one-third statewide, while the
non-regulated rates approach the upper
third statewide. The increase recommended
by the Budget and Finance Committee for BLS
(9%) and ALS (9.7%) only covers the cost of
living increases over the past two years
for only those categories. As you may
recall, the recommendation was only for
BLS, ALS and ALS without procedures, with
no increases recommended in any of the
other five areas such as oxygen, night,
emergency, etc. It should also be noted
that the specific rates do not transmit
directly into actual dollars received by
the ambulance service, because of reduced
insurance payment procedures.
Bakersfield, California, September 13, 1989 - Page 7
Enclosure Three gives an example scenario
of a typical ambulance response showing the
increased cost to a citizen within the
regulated area if the Budget and Finance
Committee's recommendation is approved.
For a typical BLS call the increase would
be only 3.5% and for an ALS call the
increase would be 5.8%. In the third
category, ALS response to call, with no ALS
procedures, the increase would be from $338
to $405, or 1 9.8%. This may seem
unreasonably high, however, when it is
considered as part of the overall system,
it is not unreasonable. For instance,
currently citizens pay for the availability
of BLS and ALS service with two different
rates. When a paramedic unit (ALS)
responds to a call, but the paramedic
procedures are not required, the company
can only bill the BLS rate.
Over the past several years, the EMS
Department has encouraged increasing the
level of service to ALS or paramedic.
Coupled with that, has been the
establishment of performance criteria of
arriving at 90% of the calls within eight
minutes, which is much more stringent than
State or Federal minimum levels, and so far
this has been achieved by the ambulance
providers. This increased capability has
created a greater benefit to the citizens
of our community, but has necessarily
caused increased costs to the ambulance
companies. In our opinion, the tangible
benefit of having a paramedic available,
even when not used; rather than just an
EMT-I, more than offsets the cost, in our
opinion. This is a positive proactive
approach and keeps the ambulance services
in our community at the highest possible
level.
It is the EMS Department's opinion that
when all aspects of this situation are
considered, it would be both prudent and
reasonable to provide a rate increase for
ambulance providers, and this is why the
EMS Department encourages the Council to
move forward with the Budget and Finance
Committee's previously recommended rate
increase
Thank you.
