Medical Necessity

Medicare or state Medicaid

 Medical  necessity  is  established  when  the  patient's  condition  is  such  that  use  of  any  other  method  of  transportation  is  not  appropriate. In  any  case  in  which  some  means  of  transportation  other  than  an  ambulance  could  be  used  without  endangering  the  individual's  health,  whether  or  not  such  other  transportation  is  actually  available,  no  payment  may  be  made  for  ambulance  services.  This  generally  means  the  patient  must  have  an  acute  injury  or  illness.

It  is  important  to note  that  the  presence  (or  absence)  of  a  physician's  order  for  a  transport  by  ambulance  does  not  necessarily  prove  (or  disprove)  whether  the  transport  was  medically  necessary.

The  patient  has  the  right  to  appeal  this  determination  by  contacting  their  insurance  carrier  directly.
