CHEROKEE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS operates as a land ambulance provider with its Medicare revenue dominated by emergency transport ALS/BLS services; the top three Medicare codes (A0427, A0429, A0425) together account for 98.1% of Medicare revenue, reflecting a narrow service mix concentrated on ambulance transports and mileage rather than ancillary services. This mix indicates the organization functions primarily as a municipal or county EMS transport operation focused on emergency response and patient transfers.
Medicare revenue scale is materially larger than Medicaid for this provider: total Medicare revenue is $1.8M versus total Medicaid revenue of $61.8K, indicating Medicare is the overwhelmingly dominant payer in lifetime reported revenue and that the provider is effectively Medicare-centric in scale. The Medicaid footprint exists but is small relative to Medicare.
Within Medicare billing, A0427 is the single largest revenue driver with $1.1M (58.3% of Medicare revenue) and ranks in the 96th percentile nationally (#253 of 6841), which positions the provider as a high-volume but not unique contributor for advanced life support emergency transports compared with peers. Coupled with A0429 ($424.2K, 23.1%) and A0425 ($307.1K, 16.7%), the provider’s Medicare business is concentrated in emergency ALS/BLS transports and mileage.
On Medicaid, the same codes drive revenue concentration: A0427, A0425, and A0429 together account for 100.0% of Medicaid revenue, with A0427 representing 57.0% of Medicaid revenue. Medicaid ranks are middling in-state (for example A0427 ranks #11 of 21, ~50th percentile), indicating the provider is a typical regional participant in Medicaid ambulance billing rather than a dominant statewide operator.
Competitive standing differs by payer: nationally for Medicare this provider shows above-typical volume for its top codes (A0427 at the 96th percentile, A0429 at the 95th percentile, A0425 at the 95th percentile), so it is a materially active national peer on those ambulance codes; by contrast, its Medicaid ranks are around the state median or slightly above for mileage, indicating a modest in-state presence. These patterns suggest stronger competitive presence among Medicare-fee-for-service beneficiaries than within the state Medicaid population.
The provider has been enumerated since 2006-10-27 (~20 years), indicating long tenure in the EMS space; this persistence aligns with the concentrated coding pattern and steady accumulation of lifetime revenue across the ambulance transport codes. Longevity supports that the observed billing profile is an established operational pattern rather than a short-term artifact.
Volume metrics for individual Medicare codes are consistent with an operational EMS fleet: A0427 reported 2.7K claims and A0429 reported 1.3K claims, while mileage A0425 shows 43.9K claims, which together depict frequent transports with per-claim payments aligned to transport and per-mile reimbursement. The high count of A0425 mileage claims relative to transport claims suggests regular utilization of ground mileage billing as part of routine transports.
There are no extreme statistical outliers reported; each top code is described in the source data as "typical, unremarkable volume" or similar at its respective percentile, and the provider’s A0433 Medicare activity (59 claims) sits at an 83rd-percentile standing described as typical. This supports interpreting the provider as a busy, established ambulance operator rather than an unusual outlier in coding patterns.
