ORANGE COUNTY <br /> • <br /> HILLSBOROUGH <br /> NORTH CAROLINA <br /> 27278 <br /> EMERGENCY SERVICES <br /> • <br /> io6 EAST MARGARET LANE <br /> Established 1752 <br /> June 18, 1987 <br /> Mr. Mickey Tezai, Manager <br /> Durham County Hospital Corporation <br /> Ambulance Division <br /> 3643 North Roxboro Street <br /> Durham, N. C. 27704 <br /> Dear Mickey: <br /> Since SAS-Piedmont (who handled our non-emergency transports) is no <br /> longer available, we are looking at the possibility of doing non- <br /> emergency transports with fee for service. <br /> Should we implement non-emergency transport service, it'would be <br /> difficult to justify operating this service nights and week-ends. <br /> We are proposing to provide this non-emergency transport service <br /> Monday through Firday, 8:30 to 5:30. <br /> Records for the past six months indicate that approximately 8 to <br /> 10 of these non-emergency requests per month occur after 5:30 PM <br /> week days and/or on week-ends. We would like to request that Durham <br /> County Ambulance Division consider providing coverage for these non- <br /> emergency transports that occur nights and week-ends. Orange County <br /> understands that any patient transported by Durham County Ambulance <br /> would be charged at your current rate. <br /> If it is possible for you to assist us in this manner, please let <br /> us hear from you as soon as possible. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Bobby L. Baker, Director <br /> Orange County Emergency Services <br /> BC,B;js <br /> • <br />
