The inaugural EMS Financial Index provides a first-of-its-kind national analysis of the financial trends shaping EMS agencies across the United States. Drawing on data from more than 1,500 ambulance services representing diverse delivery models, the report offers valuable insight into EMS reimbursement, revenue cycle performance, and the financial realities facing the industry.

Authored by EMS|MC & PWW|AG, the report examines key benchmarks including national ambulance fees, regional Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement trends, and the relationship between charges and collections. These data-driven insights help EMS executives, finance leaders, and billing professionals evaluate performance, identify opportunities for improvement, and make more informed financial decisions.
