Should Greenville County transfer its award-winning ambulance service and EMS Department to The Greenville Health System (GHS) by creating something called a “Mobile Integrated Healthcare Practice (MIHP)?” To save money, the Greenville County Council is currently considering making just such a change on Oct. 1.
Greenville EMS has been operating at a loss for years. Consequently, the county has been looking for ways to reduce the cost of providing ambulance service to the community. Some believe a big part of the solution may simply be improving the process the county uses to seek reimbursement from insurance companies, Medicare, Medicaid, and “out-of-network” patients.
