APA WF 22-05 Ambulance Service Provider Access Payment Program
These rule changes were previously approved by the OHCA Board of Directors and the Governor and are currently in effect as emergency rules. Due to Oklahoma Statutes, these rules must be taken through the permanent rulemaking process.
The proposed policy establishes rules to comply with Oklahoma HB 2950, which mandates that Oklahoma obtain federal and state authority to establish and enforce an Ambulance Service Provider Access Payment Program to assure access to quality emergency transports for state Medicaid members. The program will assess a fee to privately owned ambulance service providers licensed in Oklahoma to be used to supplement appropriations to support ambulance service provider reimbursement. The proposed rules will establish the program's provider fee calculation, provider exemptions, provider notification requirements, payment schedules, penalties, and appeals requirements.
