Vermont S0031 suspends the ambulance agency provider tax for fiscal years 2026, 2027, and 2028, transferring equivalent revenue from the PILOT.

Vermont S0031 enacts a temporary suspension of the ambulance agency provider tax for fiscal years 2026, 2027, and 2028. During these years, the Department of Vermont Health Access will not assess, and ambulance agencies will not be required to pay, the tax established by 33 V.S.A. Section 1959. Instead, the Commissioner of Finance and Management will transfer an amount equal to the revenue generated by the ambulance agency assessment in fiscal year 2025 from the PILOT Special Fund to the General Fund.
