Trustee Harper presented the Resolution and moved for approval. Trustee Carlson seconded the motion. Fire Chief Chris Clark stated this resolution is an intergovernmental agreement with the State of Illinois to participate in a new program providing the Village the opportunity to recover more of the cost of ambulance transports for Medicaid patients. Medicaid patients account for 25% of patients and the Village is currently reimbursed by the State at a fairly low rate per transport. A federal program is in place which will pay the difference in our actual costs and what Medicaid pays us. This will result in increased revenue for the Village. There will be no change to what residents pay for ambulance service. ROLL CALL:
