Ambulance provider assessment program establishment

This bill establishes a new assessment program for ambulance providers in Minnesota. It requires most ambulance services (excluding public/governmental services and air ambulances) to pay a quarterly fee based on their gross revenues from emergency ground ambulance services. The collected fees fund supplemental payments to ambulance providers, aiming to increase Minnesota's medical assistance reimbursement rates to match average commercial insurance rates. The program includes annual reporting requirements starting in 2027 and must comply with federal funding rules.
