§ 6.28.010. Establishment of program to bill insurers and non-City residents for Emergency Medical Services.

A program is hereby established to permit the City to bill insurers, nursing homes, and non-City residents for the provision of emergency medical services. The Annapolis Fire Department is the primary provider of pre-hospital emergency medical services within the corporate limits of the City and to many areas outside the corporate limits of the City. All persons in need of such services are entitled to receive them without prior determination of their ability to pay. No person requiring emergency medical services shall be denied services due to lack of insurance or ability to pay. All policies governing management of the program shall be determined by the Chief of the Annapolis Fire Department in collaboration with the Director of Finance. All fees collected under this program shall be deposited into the general fund and appropriated in the annual budget for use only for those costs specifically related to the provision of Emergency Medical Services.
