Billing | SouthOrangetownEMS

The South Orangetown Ambulance Corps is a 501(C)(3) Not for Profit Corporation that since 1957 has contracted with the Town of Orangetown to provide 24x7, 365 Emergency Medical Services to the residents, businesses, and guests to the South Orangetown Ambulance District. The Town Board in 1999 directed the Corps to obtain insurance information for the clients that we transport for the purposes of recouping/reducing the yearly operating expenses of the Corps and thus reducing the ambulance corps budgetary line item impact on the residences and business who pay taxes in the ambulance corps district.

After receiving an initial statement from the Ambulance Corps, do not send in any money at this point. Please provide the requested health insurance information that the form requests or notify the Corps billing company, ProClaim EMS Solutions & Billing what your health insurance status is. If you have any questions at this point related to insurance matters contact ProClaim EMS Solutions & Billing at (914) 366 - 4004.

Insurance companies usually send checks directly to the policy holder in their name when the South Orangetown Ambulance Corps is not a participator in the providers network. Please be advised that failure to turn these funds over to the Corps constitutes insurance fraud. The Corps does seek legal remedies to reclaim these funds after normal business practices have been exhausted.

Ambulance Corps

I am a resident of Orangetown or I am a business owner in Orangetown who pays town taxes. Why am I receiving a “Statement” requesting insurance information after the South Orangetown Ambulance Corps transported me, a family member, or one of my employees to the hospital?"

I received a “Statement” from the ambulance Corps related to an ambulance transport, what do I do now?"

My insurance company mailed me a check made payable directly to me for ambulance service provided by the South Orangetown Ambulance Corps, what should I do with the check now? What should I do if I already deposited the check into my account?"

I want to speak to someone at the South Orangetown Ambulance Corps directly.

I am having a medical emergency requiring an ambulance but I have unpaid balances owed to the Corps that I can’t afford to pay.
