WA State Gronnd Emergency Medical Transportation Serviees Program
During the 2015 legislative session,the State of Washington approved HB 2007,establishing the
Ground Emergency Medical Transportation(GEMT) Services program,which provides
reimbursement to providers for Medicaid ground emergency transportation services(codified as
C147,Laws 2015). Medicaid includes coverage for emergency transportation services. In order for a
public provider of inedical services to receive GEMT reimhursements,the public provider must
submit an application with the Washington State Health Care Authority(WSHCA)declaring that it is
a certified public expenditure program. Provider participation in the GEMT program is voluntary
and must meet several requirements to be eligible. These include: Enrollment as s Medicaid provider
with an active core provider agreement; must be publicly owned;and must provide ground
emergency transportation to Washington Apple Health Medicaid clients. If certification is approved,
the WSHCA provides supplemental payments to the public provider ta cover the actual cost of
providing services.

Richa Sigdel, Finance Director
City of Pasco Ambulance Utility Rate Study 2021 Update
The City of Pasco has applied for and has received GEMT reimbursements. However,because this
program is still relatively new,the City is closely monitoring reimbursements as levels can change
year to yeaz.
Community Growth and Demands Upon 5ervices
As the sixteenth iargest city in Washington State and the largest and fastest growing city in Franklin
County,ensuring fire and emergency services keep pace to support city growth is critical.
The City recently remodeled Fire Stations#8] and#82 and relocated fire station#83 to within the
urban growth area. The City also acquired land for the future construction of new fire statian#85
(loca#ed on Road 100), and has budgeted resources to acquire land for new fire station#87. Funding
for the construction of Fire Station#85 is included in the 2021-2022 budget($449,000). Funding for
purchase of property for fire station#$7 is included in the 2021-2022 budget($265,�00).
In the near future,the City plans to acquire land for a future fire station#$b,to be located in the
northwest area of the City.
Once these stations are constructed,each will need to be staffed. Staffing is not yet included in the
City's budget. The City has requested including the cost of staffing these new stations in this
ambulance utility rate study.
Fiscal Sustainability Objectives
As stated above,the Ambulance Utility presently receives about$420,000 in funding from the
General Fund.The City's goal is to have the Utility operate as a self-sufficient special revenue fund,
with revenue from rates, GEMT reimbursements,and other resources sufF'icient to support the
ongoing costs of the Utility. General ta�c support of the Utility is expected to be eliminated. The City
of Pasco presently charges $16.20 each month for each single family residential equivalent dwelling.
As included in the 2021-2022 budget, a goal ofthe City is to enhanca the long-term financial
viability,value and service levels of services and programs, through regular evaluation of services
and programs to confirm impartance to community, adequacy, and cost-benefit. This ambulance
utility rate study update wiZl help suppori this objective.
