New York A07361 amends the general municipal law to introduce a fee schedule for ambulance services delivered to licensed emergency departments. The bill specifies that no fee is charged if the ambulance is released to service other calls within 30 minutes of arrival. If the ambulance remains for over an hour, a fee of $1,000 is imposed, increasing by $500 for each additional hour. Emergency departments must pay within 60 days, with a 3% interest fee for late payments. The Department of Health will review and adjust the fee schedule every four years based on the consumer price index.
