FERN CREEK FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT operates as a Land Ambulance provider with its NPI enumerated on 2020-01-17 (~6 years ago), and its claims mix is dominated by emergency ambulance and associated supplies codes. The prominence of A0427 (advanced life support, emergency transport) and A0429 (basic life support, emergency transport) across both payers aligns with a primary emergency transport operation rather than a nonemergency or interfacility focus, while high volumes of A0425 (ground mileage) and A0398/A0382 (routine disposable supplies) indicate material billing for trip distance and onboard supplies.
Medicare revenue is highly concentrated: the provider reports Total Medicare revenue of $919.9K and the precomputed top-3 Medicare codes account for 97.7% of that revenue. A0427 alone represents 70.3% of Medicare revenue (1.8K claims, $361 avg paid/claim, $650.2K revenue), with A0429 at 13.8% (427 claims, $299 avg paid/claim, $127.7K) and A0425 at 13.6% (17.9K claims, $7 avg paid/claim, $125.3K), indicating reliance on a small set of transport and mileage codes for nearly all Medicare receipts.
Medicaid revenue is larger in scale on file: Total Medicaid revenue of $1.9M exceeds Medicare revenue and the top-3 Medicaid codes account for 88.9% of that Medicaid revenue. The Medicaid mix is led by A0427 at 39.5% ($770K, 8.8K claims, $88 avg paid/claim) and A0398 at 37.2% ($725.5K, 4K claims, $182 avg paid/claim), with A0425 contributing 12.3% ($239.3K, 10.9K claims, $22 avg paid/claim), showing a substantial portion of Medicaid dollars tied to ALS transports plus disposable-supplies billing.
Competitive standing differs by payer and code: for Medicare A0427 the provider ranks #387 of 6841 nationally (94th percentile) and for A0425 ranks #1203 of 8934 (87th percentile), which reflects a stronger-than-average national placement on those transport and mileage codes even though the dataset characterizes these volumes as "typical, unremarkable volume." For Medicaid, A0427 ranks #26 of 176 providers in-state (86th percentile) and A0398 ranks #12 of 72 (85th percentile), indicating a substantial in-state presence for the top Medicaid revenue drivers while still being described as "typical, unremarkable volume."
Operational implications from the claim counts and code mix: high claim counts for mileage (A0425: 17.9K Medicare claims; 10.9K Medicaid claims) alongside large counts for A0427 (1.8K Medicare claims; 8.8K Medicaid claims) suggest sustained call volume and frequent billed transport events rather than sporadic, high-dollar singular events. The large Medicaid contribution from A0398 (4K claims, $725.5K revenue) indicates that routine disposable supplies are a major revenue stream under Medicaid and should be considered when assessing service-line profitability and contract negotiations.
Revenue concentration risks and focus areas: because 97.7% of Medicare revenue and 88.9% of Medicaid revenue are tied to the top three codes on each payer, shifts in reimbursement, coding guidance, or utilization for A0427, A0429/A0398, and A0425 could materially affect overall finances. Analysts should prioritize monitoring policy or payer edits affecting advanced life support transports, routine ALS supplies, and ground mileage reimbursement when evaluating financial sensitivity.
Coding/stability note: across both payers most top codes are labeled in the source as "typical, unremarkable volume," and percentile ranks for major codes fall in the mid- to high-percentile ranges (59th–94th percentile depending on code and payer). There are no dataset labels indicating extreme outlier status for the listed top codes, suggesting the provider’s billing patterns sit within common ranges for ambulance services at both the national Medicare and in-state Medicaid levels.
