FIREMED benefits.

As a FIREMED member, you and your
household receive the following: emergency treatment
and transportation, paramedic rescue, travel
coverage, and non-emergency transportation when
medically necessary and approved in advance by a
doctor. (Back to Top)
When a FIREMED member uses the
ambulance service, we will bill any insurance
coverage providing medical benefits that they may
have. The member will not receive a bill for any
un-related balances. (Back to Top)
In order to keep administrative
costs down so that we can maximize the amount of
funds to improve and upgrade emergency services, we
sponsor an open enrollment period once a year during
May - July. Although, you can join any time during
the year, all FIREMED memberships expire June 30.
