House Bill Seeks To Increase Air Ambulance Funding
A study released earlier this year found that Medicare covered just 59 percent of the typical cost of air medical transport.

A bipartisan bill introduced yesterday in the U.S. House of Representatives seeks to increase Medicare reimbursement rates of air medical transports to at or near actual costs. H.R.3378, the Ensuring Access to Air Ambulance Services Act, was introduced by Reps. Jackie Walorski (R-Indiana), Suzan Delbene (D-Washington), Bill Johnson (R-Ohio) and Raul Ruiz (D-California).
