Notes
A cancellation fee of four hours per paramedic at the hourly rate will apply if the event is cancelled with less than 48 hours notice, unless there are extenuating circumstances. Extensions beyond the agreed time will attract an additional charge at the same rate based on 30 minute increments.
The charges cover
first aid treatment at the event. The charges do not cover any
patient that requires transport from the event. Should
this occur the individual patient will be charged for the transport
separately.
Generally, in the event that a patient transport is required
from the event another ambulance resource will be called. However,
in an emergency
situation the ambulance at the event will transport the patient
and another ambulance will be sent to cover the event. A reduction
of fees will be made
for the period of no coverage.
We reserve the right to terminate and/or withdraw from an attendance at any time. If a major incident occurs that exhausts our resources we may withdraw attendance at an event without notice until other resources become available. Should this occur an appropriate reduction in charges will apply.
Concessions
Ambulance may consider awarding concessions to sporting and event
organisers on an individual basis. Sporting and event organisers
may write to Ambulance at least 21 days prior to the event requesting
a concession.
Applications should be addressed to:
General Manager Operations
Ambulance Service of NSW
Locked Bag 105
Rozelle NSW 2039
Outstanding fees
Any organisation who has defaulted on previous invoices or accounts must settle this outstanding accounts and pay in advance for subsequent events.
