Matthew had a procedure scheduled for this afternoon, the 17th of Feb, 2017 at noon. He had to be at GRMC no later than 10 a.m. and finding one to transport him to and from GRMC was difficult. I wanted to share this should you know someone who needs an ambulance to transport someone for a procedure anywhere.
Normally, Medicare will pay 80% for a procedure/appointment scheduled at any hospital; Medicaid will pay the balance. Unfortunately, if the patient has an appointment at a Clinic, the patient will have to pay 100%
