Medix Ambulance Membership Program
Only $69/year/per household!
Benefits
Membership covers medically necessary emergency transportation within our district, and non-emergency Advanced Life Support transfers originating from Local Hospitals.
- Your membership will cover the first $100.00 of any deductible your insurance carrier applies to each “household” member’s responsibility.
- A “household” is you, your spouse, and any of your unmarried children under the age of 26.
- Your membership will cover the first $100.00 of any co-payment/benefit limitation your insurance carrier applies to your emergency transport claim.
- Any co-payment/benefit limitation exceeding $100.00 will be reduced by 50%.The remaining 50% is the member’s responsibility. Coverage of your plan’s deductible is applied separately.
