Subscription FAQ

Your subscription assures that Cranberry Township EMS will have the staff, vehicles, and equipment required to provide around-the-clock protection for you and your family in the event of an emergency.  Your paid subscription shows that you support YOUR EMS by providing the revenue needed to help operate the system.

Yes, it does. Cranberry Township EMS maintains reciprocal agreements with our immediately surrounding EMS services and 17 other organizations who are members of the Northeast Ambulance Alliance. If you become ill or injured in any of these communities and require medically necessary emergency ambulance service, your CTEMS subscription will be honored as if you were a member of their service.

Yes. Your subscription assures that you will not incur any unnecessary bills for medically necessary emergency ambulance service, regardless of your insurance coverage.  Most insurance companies do not pay 100% of ambulance bills.  If your coverage includes a deductible or a co-payment, you could be left with a large balance to pay out-of-pocket. Keep in mind non-subscribers are responsible for full payment of all applicable charges, which often can exceed more than $600.00 per trip.  The subscription program is only available to those that have health insurance coverage.

In the event that you need ambulance service, Cranberry Township EMS will submit a bill to your insurance company. Insurance payments are then applied to your balance.  Once your insurance benefits are exhausted, we write off any remaining balance minus your $50 Service Charge.  Subscribers do not have to pay any out-of-pocket expenses for emergency ambulance services no matter how frequently you need our services other than the $50 Service Charge per use.

All recipients of services are required to immediately forward any and all reimbursement received to Cranberry Township EMS. Failure to do so will result in the immediate termination of any subscription agreement and you will be held responsible for payment of all outstanding balances.

The following services are not covered by your subscription.

  • Alternative modes of non-emergency transportation, such as wheelchair van and invalid coach transports.
  • Transports which do not meet medical necessity criteria, as determined by your health insurance.
  • Any charges related to excessive mileage or other non-covered charges for transports, which are based solely on patient and/or physician preference.
  • Treatment rendered but refused transportation.
