EMS COST DATA REPORTING Medicare Ground Ambulance Data Collection.
Medicare Cost Reports are used to explain expenses and revenue for the different types of services provided by Ground Ambulance agencies. CMS’s main concern is gathering a clear picture of the costs related to operating a ground ambulance service. The information will be collected and analyzed to gauge how adequate Medicare payments are for ground ambulance services. When gathering your information, you will be required to report information spanning over a continuous 12-month period. The report will include a multitude of data points broken down into many sections.
Depending on whether your agency has implemented specific reporting techniques prior, will greatly affect the amount of time required to gather and submit an accurate cost report. We estimate it can take an agency with no prior preparations over 30 hours to put their report together.
