Bill overview
This bill, the Comprehensive Alternative Response for Emergencies Act of 2025 (CARE Act), directs the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation to test a new model for emergency medical services under Medicare. The model focuses on utilizing ground ambulance services and potentially telehealth to respond to emergency calls, aiming to improve access to care and potentially reduce costs. It requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to establish payment rates aligned with traditional transport services and mandates a 5-year pilot program with a subsequent report evaluating its effectiveness.
