Excerpt from Ambulance Costs Under Medicare: Hearing Before a Subcommittee of the Committee on Appropriations, United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session; Special Hearing
Ms. Brown. Good morning, Mr. Chairman. I am June Gibbs Brown, Inspector General for the Department of Health and Human Services, and with me today is George Grob, Deputy In spector General for evaluation and inspection. I am pleased to be here to discuss the Medicare payments for ambulance services.
We believe that Medicare needs to revise its payment practices to better ensure that payment is made only for services which are medically necessary. These reforms are especially needed for ambu lance transports provided to end stage renal disease beneficiaries.
