Fairmont Ave.. Suite 6 LOD1.CALIFORNIA 95240 Emergency 368-4935 / Utica 359-1955 'December 19, 1977 i..kitAmr..71,C MN We have done a cost evaluation on the upcoming Socialsecurity Tax increase and the Federal Wage hourly increase and now know that we will have to increase our ambulance base rate from $50.00 to $55.00. We feel that the increase of five dollars per ambulance trip will help defer the cost to our company. With approximately 3,200 ambulance trips per year, this will increase our gross revenue to $16,000.00, Then, with a write-off factor from Medi -Cal, Medicare and bad debts to be about 39%, we will receive $9,760.00 in net revenue to assist the company with the new increase in federal programs. that rate At this time, we are giving written notice to the City of Lodi within 30 days the now existing Lodi Ambulance Service base of $50.00 will be increased to $55.00.
