The AB Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) have put together a National AB MAC Ambulance Provider/Supplier Coalition. MACs involved with the coalition include:

  • Noridian
  • CGS Administrators
  • First Coast
  • National Government Services, Inc. (NGS)
  • Novitas
  • Palmetto GBA
  • Wisconsin Physician Services (WPS)

Goals of the coalition:

  • Improve Communication: Create a live venue for collaborative and meaningful dialogue specific to ambulance billing and documentation related to Medicare regulations; subsequently offering the MACs the opportunity to better understand day-to-day routines and issues of ambulance providers working to correlate Medicare regulations into practices, policies, and procedures.
  • Support Innovation: Through creativity and innovative efforts, we will work to develop and launch new and creative educational ideas specific to Medicare ambulance regulations to assist the ambulance community in continued understanding of federal regulations.
  • Preserve Integrity: Promote the maintenance of the goals and responsibilities of the coalition in an honest and ethical manner to uphold all laws, rules, and regulations.
  • Provide Quality Customer Service: Exceed provider expectations by efficiently and effectively assisting and supporting the ambulance community via educational opportunities, answers to questions, and continued expeditious regulatory ambulance specific updates.
  • Create a Responsible, Collaborative Provider Community: Develop an environment that offers providers the opportunity to become individually responsible for services they provide through quality education, as well as meet and collaborate with other members of the ambulance community to develop a better understanding of best practices specific to Medicare ambulance regulations.
  • Protect Beneficiaries and Providers: Ensure the physical and monetary safety of Medicare beneficiaries by providing a clear understanding of federal Medicare services, billing, and documentation regulations that also protect our ambulance provider members.
