Fort Worth FD will be taking over ambulance service

city council will vote to approve the takeover of MedStar in May

"Washington also anticipates absorbing emergency services to have no
impact on the city's tax rate or ambulance bills. Currently, between
25-30% of EMS calls don't result in payment. That, along with supply
chain issues and increasing personnel costs, meant MedStar was
struggling financially.

Now, those economic factors will be the city's burden to bear.

"We'll have to work internally and really determine how we want to
handle this expense," Washington said."
