CITY OF FAIRBANKS operates as a land ambulance service based on its taxonomy and the dominance of transport codes; the Medicare portfolio is led by A0427, A0429 and A0428 which are advanced life support and basic life support emergency/non-emergency transport codes, indicating primary revenue is derived from emergency ground transports rather than ancillary services. This code mix is consistent with a municipal EMS or ambulance provider whose day-to-day operations focus on BLS and ALS transports.
Revenue is highly concentrated by code for both payers: the top three Medicare codes account for 90.8% of this provider's total Medicare revenue and the top three Medicaid codes account for 97.4% of its total Medicaid revenue. That concentration means relatively few code-rate changes or utilization shifts could materially move overall revenue.
Payer mix is Medicaid-dominant in scale: lifetime Medicaid revenue is $2.4M versus lifetime Medicare revenue of $748.9K, so the provider’s financial exposure and negotiation leverage will be driven more by Medicaid volumes and rates than by Medicare. Analysts should treat this entity as effectively operating with a Medicaid-first volume profile rather than a Medicare-driven model.
Within Medicare, A0427 is the single largest revenue driver at $438.4K (58.6% of the provider's Medicare revenue) and ranks #921 of 6841 providers nationally (87th percentile), a position described in the data as typical and unremarkable in volume. A0429 ($156.2K, 20.9%) and A0428 ($84.6K, 11.3%) round out the top three and together create a profile centered on emergency and non-emergency ground transports. This pattern makes the provider a modest but not unusually high-volume national participant for these ambulance codes.
In Medicaid, the revenue mix shows an even stronger single-code dependence: A0428 accounts for $1.2M (52.5% of Medicaid revenue) and the provider ranks #4 of 23 in-state (86th percentile), described as typical and unremarkable volume for that code. A0429 ($727.7K, 30.6%, rank #4 of 22, 86th percentile) and A0427 ($340.8K, 14.3%, rank #3 of 16, 87th percentile) complete the Medicaid top three, producing a statewide competitive standing that places the provider among the larger BLS/transport vendors in Alaska rather than as a fringe operator.
Mileage and higher-level ALS2 services are present but represent small shares of revenue: Medicare A0425 contributes $36.7K (4.9%) and A0433 contributes $32K (4.3%), while Medicaid A0425 contributes $31.7K (1.3%) and A0433 contributes $5.7K (0.2%). Each of these codes is characterized in the source as typical, unremarkable volume, implying mileage and level-2 ALS are supportive lines rather than primary revenue drivers.
The provider has longstanding tenure: NPI enumerated 2006-12-15 (~20 years ago), signaling established operations and likely steady relationships with state Medicaid programs and local hospitals or public-safety partners. That longevity, combined with concentrated transport revenue, suggests operational stability but also concentrated risk if transport reimbursement policies change.
Competitive implications for payers and network planners are clear: nationally the provider’s Medicare activity sits at typical volume levels for ambulance codes, while in-state Medicaid ranks place CITY OF FAIRBANKS among the more prominent BLS/non-emergency transport vendors. Analysts evaluating contracting or rate strategy should prioritize Medicaid transport rates and utilization trends for A0428/A0429/A0427, since those codes account for the vast majority of Medicaid revenue and will drive the provider’s financial response to any programmatic changes.
