An ambulance transport in Brick Township could soon come with a much higher base charge.

The Township Council is set to consider final passage of an ordinance this week raising the township’s EMS base rate from $800 to $1,500 per transport.

The base charge covers dispatch of EMTs, basic life support and emergency ambulance transportation to local healthcare facilities. A separate mileage charge would rise from $30 to $40 per mile.

The proposed schedule also increases oxygen administration from $100 to $150, a disposable cervical collar from $35 to $50, treatment without transport from $150 to $350, and an extra attendant or bariatric transport from $125 to $225.

A new $100 charge for CPAP administration would be added. The schedule also lists $95 for AED administration, $200 for an EpiPen, $150 for Narcan and $500 for a scheduled, nonemergency stretcher transport.
