Crowley Fire Department Ambulance Subscription P A Service For the Community (PDF attached below)
The Crowley Fire Departments EMS Subscription Program is sponsored by the City of Crowley. The subscription program is designed to aid in off setting the increasing cost of EMERGENCY ambulance treatment and transportation. Insurance companies routinely DO NOT pay the entire costs of EMERGENCY ambulance services leaving citizens with the responsibility of paying the balance of their emergency ambulance bill. The purpose of the subscription program is to cover the amount of an emergency ambulance bill which is not paid by your insurance provider or Medicare when you or a qualified family member is transported in an emergency event by the Crowley Fire Departments EMS Service. The subscription program is NOT an insurance policy or supplement. If you have any questions, please contact the Fire Department 817-297-2201.
