The fee is added to base funding from all other sources to support additional medicaid payments. The fee applies to nonpublic and nonfederal providers of emergency ambulance services. This is a dedicated fund established within the state treasury, known as the ambulance transport fund. The ambulance transport fund is used to receive and distribute funds.
