SURVIVAL FLIGHT EMS LLC operates as a Land Ambulance provider with billing concentrated in emergency and transport services; its highest-revenue codes are A0427, A0425, and A0429 across Medicare and Medicaid, and the provider's top three Medicare codes account for 88.9% of its $2.1M in Medicare revenue while the top three Medicaid codes account for 89.5% of its $3.1M in Medicaid revenue. This mix indicates the business is primarily focused on ambulance transports (both advanced and basic life support) and mileage-based ground transport rather than ancillary or non-transport services.
Medicare revenue is heavily driven by A0427 ($863.4K, 41.0% of Medicare revenue), A0425 ($673.8K, 32.0%), and A0429 ($335.8K, 15.9%), which together make up the precomputed 88.9% share of Medicare receipts. In national comparisons A0425 ranks #199 of 8934 providers nationally (98th percentile; notably above typical national volume), while A0427 ranks #307 of 6841 (96th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume) and A0429 ranks #468 of 7808 (94th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), showing a standout position on mileage billing and otherwise typical volumes for emergency ALS/BLS transports.
On the Medicaid side A0427 ($1.2M, 38.3%), A0425 ($887.8K, 28.9%), and A0429 ($684.9K, 22.3%) together represent the precomputed 89.5% of $3.1M in Medicaid revenue, indicating a similar service-line concentration as Medicare but at a larger absolute dollar scale. In-state ranks for those codes are moderate: A0427 ranks #20 of 80 providers (76th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), A0425 ranks #20 of 87 (78th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), and A0429 ranks #17 of 62 (74th percentile; typical, unremarkable volume), suggesting the provider is a meaningful but not dominant Medicaid ambulance vendor within Arkansas.
Payer mix is Medicaid-weighted: reported lifetime Medicaid revenue ($3.1M) exceeds Medicare revenue ($2.1M), so a larger share of the provider’s billed activity and dollars comes from Medicaid. This asymmetry implies business exposure and operational focus toward the payer rules and reimbursement patterns of the state Medicaid program, while still maintaining substantial Medicare activity.
Claims-count patterns reinforce an operational emphasis on mileage and frequent transports: Medicare shows 84.2K claims for A0425 (ground mileage) and Medicaid shows 12.3K claims for A0425, while volume for individual emergency transport units is smaller (e.g., Medicare A0427 2.2K claims, Medicare A0429 1.1K claims; Medicaid A0427 6.1K claims, Medicaid A0429 3.7K claims). The very high claim count on A0425 at the Medicare level, paired with elevated paid-per-claim averages for A0427 and A0429, is consistent with an operation that bills extensively for distance/mileage in addition to ALS/BLS emergency transports.
Beyond the top-three concentration, the provider also reports notable participation in non-emergency ALS services: Medicare A0426 generated $150.4K (7.1% of Medicare revenue) and ranks #58 of 1568 providers nationally (96th percentile; notably above typical national volume). That higher-than-typical ranking for A0426 suggests SURVIVAL FLIGHT EMS LLC maintains a meaningful non-emergency ALS transport capability in addition to emergency response.
Tenure is relatively recent but established: the provider’s NPI was enumerated 2019-09-20 (~7 years ago), indicating about seven years of billing history to assess patterns and competitive position. Given the concentrated revenue mix and the mix of high-mileage claims and ALS/BLS emergency transports, analysts should treat SURVIVAL FLIGHT EMS LLC as a specialized ambulance operator with strong mileage-driven Medicare billing and a larger Medicaid revenue base in-state.
