What is an EMS service fee? Do I have to pay it?

As of 2023, Ross/West View EMSA has implemented an annual mandatory EMS fee in each of the five municipalities it serves. This fee is to provide a source of sustainable funding for the EMS. The fee is $55 per household. Once you have paid this fee, you will not have to pay any out-of-pocket ambulance fees that are not covered by insurance. For more information or to pay this fee, you can visit Ross/West View EMSA's website: https://www.rwvems.org/levy/
