BENEFITS AND LIMITATIONS
Nonemergency ambulance transportation requires a copayment from the beneficiary of $3 per date of service. When procedure A0426 or A0428 is billed in conjunction with one of the other nonemergency procedure codes (such as S0215) for the same dates of services, copayment will be collected from the beneficiary only once.
Bill all services occurring on the same date on the same claim form. If multiple claims are submitted for the same date(s) of service, the $3 copayment requirement will be deducted for each claim submitted. Do not reduce the charges or balance due by the copayment amount. This reduction will be made automatically during claim processing.
