Creates a 5‑year Medicare Part B pilot that pays ground ambulance providers for treating patients when an ambulance is dispatched but the patient is not transported. Treatment can occur on scene or through telehealth.
It directs the Medicare Innovation Center to design and run the model, set payment rules (including for telehealth), and have the Comptroller General report to Congress within four years of implementation.
Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Ways and Means, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
