Memberships

Enjoy Peace of mind for only $65.00 a year.

Nobody likes to talk about needing an ambulance. But medical emergencies and accidents do occur. We respond to thousands of calls for help each year. And that help often means the difference between life and death. When seconds count, the last thing you should worry about is an ambulance bill.

Save money– Medicare and private insurance typically cover only a portion of your ambulance bill. That could leave you responsible for paying a hundred dollars or more. By joining Medstar’s Ambulance Service Membership Program, you eliminate out-of-pocket costs for emergency ambulance care.

Your Ambulance service includes all medically necessary* ambulance transports, 24-hours a day, 365 days a year, and covers the entire uninsured portion of your ambulance bill. Most insurance companies only cover about 75%.
