Medical assistance payment rates for ambulance services would increase statewide by a percentage (to be determined) effective January 1, 2026

Capitation payments to managed care plans and county-based purchasing plans must be increased to reflect the new ambulance service rate starting January 1, 2026

Existing law already provides a 5% rate increase for rural ambulance providers located outside metropolitan counties and certain cities (Duluth, Mankato, Moorhead, St. Cloud, Rochester), or within municipalities with populations under 1,000

Current fuel adjustment provisions remain in place, requiring rate adjustments of 1% for every 10-cent change in gasoline prices when fuel exceeds $3.00 per gallon
