Why do so many people in Oregon have a ground membership?

Even with good medical insurance, a bill will usually follow an emergency ambulance transport. Non-members pay it themselves. With an Oregon ground membership, members do not receive a bill for emergency ground medical transports. It’s that simple.

How Emergency Ground Ambulance Service works:

1

When a medical professional determines emergency transport is necessary, they may decide that ground transport is the fastest and safest way to get you the care you need.

2

We’ve got you covered. When we’re called, a ground ambulance provider will respond with caring, experienced, highly-trained crews and an ambulance equipped with the latest life-saving and life-support equipment.

3

Non-members are financially responsible for the transport and care not covered by their insurance. These charges can be significant.

4

As a member, you can recover without financial worry, knowing all out-of-pocket expenses associated with your transport are completely covered!
