The City of Miami is a valued client with whom we have experienced a very collaborative relationship. We are proud of what we have helped your organization accomplish over the past 20 years and we look forward to continuing the momentum of this successful program. We have over 25 years of EMS billing and medical billing experience. We specialize in EMS billing and medical revenue management. Our organization possesses both the trained personnel and expertise required to continue providing outstanding EMS billing and claims management for the City of Miami. You can continue to expect the highest level of service and excellent billing results from McKesson. McKesson began billing for the City of Miami in the 1990s. I personally have been working with the City of Miami since Day 1, first as a programmer, then as a client manager, and on to Director of Operations and Specialty Vice President of EMS. When I began working with the City on EMS billing, Carlos Jimenez was the chief and the City transported a fraction of the patients that are transported today. At that time, the City decided to use two vendors for billing to determine who would do a better job. In 1999, the City released an RFP for a vendor to perform the billing for all EMS accounts. McKesson won easily, driven by the fact that our collections were higher, our service was better, and our expertise in helping with audits, particularly Medicaid audits, was superior. In 2005, the City decided to piggyback off of an existing McKesson contract so that we could continue to provide outstanding service to the City without interruption. Fast forward to 2016, several chiefs later, and many more transports a year. McKesson continues to provide outstanding service to the City of Miami. No other vendor knows the City of Miami as we do. We have close to 200 EMS clients and the City of Miami stands unique in terms of demographics. It is a mix of tourists, impoverished areas, and affluent areas not found anywhere else in the United States. McKesson also performs the billing for the Jackson Memorial Hospital emergency room physicians. This means that we have valuable patient demographic information already in our system. No other vendor will have access to that type of information. Staying with McKesson will mean no loss of revenue due to a transition. The real secret to our success are the employees that work with the City. The employees that started with you in the 1990s STILL work on the City of Miami account, myself included. We have grown with McKesson Business Performance Services 7955 NW 12th Street, Suite 100 Doral, Florida 33126 www.mckesson.com/bps/ems MSKESSON s s a s s a# i s H L R i a a k R R R R 0 p a R s R p s's s s s 0. p R R a 11 R s R R R a s R s a R A R R s a R s 0 R 110 s; s e R a s 0 a 0 a A s e a a p s 0 0 R0 p with the City.

All requests for reports and general questions are answered almost immediately. We have provided documentation and patient care report writing training at the request of the City. We can meet in person at the discretion of the City since our office is only 15 minutes away from the Fire Administrative Headquarters. We have even taken the time to speak to your union in order to explain the EMS billing process since they have a revenue sharing agreement with the City. We welcome the opportunity to provide you with additional information in an oral interview with our experienced team..

Medical billing can be problematic due to the difficulty of capturing demographic information in the field. Compliance issues present another hurdle, particularly when dealing with Medicare and Medicaid populations and complex HIPAA regulations. By continuing to contract with us, you will experience the same exceptional financial performance you are accustomed to, and a compliance program that is unparalleled in the industry. We will meet with you on a monthly basis or as needed since we are just minutes away, to review reports that detail gross and net charges, collections, and accounts receivable. We will continue to conduct on -site training sessions to help your paramedics learn proper documentation methods for optimal billing and compliance. The following elements allow us to deliver a billing program that will continue to exceed your financial and compliance expectations: Advanced Technology and Reporting Capabilities Unlike most other billing vendors, we own virtually every significant software system, tool, and process involved in revenue cycle management. Owning all pieces of the billing process end -to - end allows us to eliminate paperwork, accelerate processing, and reduce costs through automated processing. We provide easily accessible standard reports. We also have the capability to customize and create reports to address your unique needs. Demonstrated Commitment to Compliance We have an annual $7 million compliance budget We have made a formal commitment to be compliant in all aspects of our business. With an annual compliance budget of over $7 million, we designed our compliance agenda based on the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (OIG) Compliance Program Guidance for Third -Party Medical Billing Companies. Integrated into everything we do, our compliance efforts are designed to establish a culture that promotes prevention, detection, and resolution of conduct that conforms to federal and state law, and federal, state, and private payer healthcare program requirements, as well as our ethical and business policies. Our investment in compliance means you can stay ahead of complex, ever -changing regulatory requirements and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing we have implemented safeguards and controls that are consistent with or surpass those recommended by federal regulatory agencies. Page 5 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 I SKESSON The City of Miami has been a direct beneficiary of our robust compliance program. We have undergone several Medicaid audits together, that are issued regularly by The State of Florida. In each and every audit since the mid 1.99o's we have been able to pull each and every single Patient Care Report and explain to Medicaid why we billed it and why it should be covered by the Medicaid program. We have had successful outcomes in every Medicaid audit because we understand The Florida Medicaid program more than any other vendor. Our compliance department and our operational execution of our internal rules and procedures are the driving force behind our success. No other vendor puts the investment that we do into compliance and insuring proper execution of compliance programs. Just having words on paper does not create success, proper execution does. Significant Experience Integrating with ePCR Systems Our billing McKesson has a strong history of integration with EMS record �m ��,� managements systems platforms; we currently integrate with a multitude systof EMS software companies throughout the United States including with eery major SafetyPAD. With this integration, we acquire patient treatment and ePCR platforrn demographic information electronically. Nearly i00% of our EMS transport billing clients upload patient treatment and demographic information electronically from EMS-RMS platforms to McKesson. We have developed a unique billing audit process with SafetyPAD where we take the unique record number from the billing extract (the case number) and import it into our billing system. We run Crystal reports from both the SafetyPAD system and the McKesson front-end system to insure that every single run has made it into our database. We then compare all billable runs to those that were actually billed to ensure that all runs have made it through our billing process. Electronic Integration with Transport Hospitals We have a strong history of successfully integrating with many transport hospitals in order to acquire patient health insurance information. Electronic integration is the ultimatesolution to acquire the cleanest and most accurate patient health insurance information possible. We currently integrate with all of your transport hospitals that allow it. We have the experience, expertise, and passion to assist you in continuing your EMS billing program. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to respond to your RFP and continue our successful relationship. �t. Mauricio Chavez Specialty Vice President, EMS Billing McKesson Page. 6 :i mergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May:18, 2016 !MUUS ON Proposer's Experience Past Performance a) Describe the Proposer's organizational history and structure; years Proposer and/or firm has been in business providing a similar service (s). The history of McKesson dates back to the beginnings of organized healthcare in the United States. Founded in 1833 by John McKesson and Charles Olcott in New York City, the company was initially focused on the importation and wholesaling of therapeutic drugs and chemicals. In fact, our company created the first national drug distribution system. Over the course of more than 180 years, we have grown by providing pharmaceutical and medical -surgical supply management across the spectrum of care; healthcare information technology for hospitals, physicians, homecare and payers; hospital and retail pharmacy automation; and services for manufacturers and payers designed to improve outcomes for patients. Today, McKesson ranks 11th on the FORTUNE 500 with $190 billion in annual revenue and over 76,000 employees. Our unique position in the industry allows us to apply the most advanced clinical knowledge, process expertise and technology to the challenges of today and tomorrow. McKesson is made up of many businesses, all serving the health care industry. Our businesses fall into one of two primary categories: Distribution Solutions and Technology Solutions. #1 pharmaceutical distributor in U.S. and Canada #1 generics distributor #1 in medical -surgical distribution to alternate care sites Leader in clinical, revenue -cycle and resource -management solutions Leading RelayHealth claims -processing and connectivity business #1 in medical -management software and services to payers Billing and Accounts Receivable Management Services Since 1974, McKesson has had the most comprehensive array of services available to help hospitals and physicians adapt to the post -reform environment (there was of course no EMS billing in 1974) . With proven experience in managing change, developing flexible technological approaches and employing our diverse practice management expertise, we possess the deep resources healthcare organizations need to thrive. As a leader in revenue cycle management across the healthcare continuum, we have the depth of experience your organization needs to improve collections and capture hard -to -collect payer Page 7 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 McKESSON accounts serviced by the other vendor. In 1999, the City chose McKesson as the sole billing vendor. The City has undergone several Medicaid audits since then (the state of Florida typically conducts audits every five years) . In each case, we have been able to whittle down the amount owed to negligible figures. This success is no accident. We have a strong compliance department with written policies that dictate how we bill different governmental payers. Florida Medicaid in particular has specific rules and regulations that we must follow — and we are experts at navigating the rules. We have undergone many successful Medicaid audits for our clients, and we hope to continue to do so for The City of Miami. In a climate of ever -changing governmental rules and regulations, including the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) , revenue for the City of Miami has increased year over year. We provide the City of Miami with outstanding service. We answer all questions almost immediately. There is always someone available to answer question — whether by email, office phone, or mobile phones. We have even answered questions after hours. No other vendor will provide this level of service. Our office is only 15 minutes away from your headquarters. The City is welcome to visit our Doral office anytime. We are also available to meet in person at the City's discretion, as we have many times. We have provided patient care report documentation training several times throughout the years and through all shifts. In addition, we give constant feedback on documentation that we feel will improve the quality of the documentation. We are always available to provide training in order to improve report writing and increase revenues for the City. We have seamlessly developed several ePCR interfaces through the years as the City has changed ePCR vendors. The City currently uses SafetyPAD and we were very involved in the design and implementation of the interface. McKesson has processes in place in order to verify that every run entered into the SafetyPAD system makes it into our billing system and is billed by McKesson. We enhanced the interface over a year ago in order to automatically calculate patient loaded miles for the City of Miami based on the scene address and the hospital where the patient was transported. In the past, the City used an "as the crow flies" measurement that was automatically passed to McKesson. This method had the potential for shortchanging the City by several miles for each transport. The new McKesson method has accurately increased the miles per transport and has increased revenue. We are always looking for ways to improve our program and increase revenue while remaining compliant with all existing rules and regulations. Another proof of our commitment to improvement is our recent innovation to capture patient signatures electronically. Medicare REQUIRES a patient signature for every run BEFORE the run can be billed to Medicare. The best time to collect a patient signature is at the time of transport. There are times when the City does not or cannot obtain a patient signature and McKesson must gather a signature from the patient before filing a claim. Most patients were not returning the signature forms that were mailed out. McKesson decided to add an e-signature Page 12 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MCKEON feature to our online patient portal, www.peryourhealth.com. Your patients have been using the portal for many years, and have witnessed improvements to the portal. Now when we are missing a patient signature, we direct a patient to our portal where they can provide an e- signature so that we may bill Medicare. The patient can also update their address, insurance, guarantor information, and save or print out a patient statement through the same portal. We will happily demo the portal for the City of Miami so that you can see what your patients sees. No other vendor has such a robust patient portal. Since the City of Miami shares revenue with union members, we have even met with your union to explain the EMS billing process. We have always gone beyond to exceed the City's expectations. This same dedication is also seen in the way we treat your patients. Throughout the years, patient complaints are almost zero. We hope to continue to provide the City with the revenue and service it has experienced since the 1990s. d) Provide information concerning any prior or pending litigation, either civil or criminal, involving a governmental agency or which may affect the performance of the services to be rendered herein, in which the Proposer, any of its employees is or has been involved within the last five years. To the best of our knowledge, the EMS billing division of McKesson does not have any pending litigation involving a governmental agency or that could affect the performance of the services provided to the City. However, as a publicly traded company, we are required to state that any material litigation related to McKesson Corporation is included in our SEC filings available at www.mckesson.com under the Investors link.

Patient Services — For inquiries or to make payments, patients (or guarantors) can contact our customer service center during normal business hours to speak with a customer service specialist. All statements contain the toll -free number and instructions to access our patient portal. 1) Indicate how the Proposer will address client relations while maximizing collections. As the City of Miami already knows, we are committed to excellence in customer service. We understand our customer service department is an extension of your organization and we train our staff to be courteous and helpful when responding to EMS patient phone calls. Customer service representatives are available via a toll free number Monday through Friday (excluding holidays) from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern to answer any incoming customer service inquiries. Our goal is to satisfy all caller issues quickly and courteously. However, callers who feel the customer service representative is not helpful or is responding inappropriately will have the option to speak with the team supervisor to resolve the issue. For self -pay accounts, we base our follow-up philosophy on our mutually developed strategy. We send three self -pay statements and make at least one phone call over a 90-day timeframe. Teaming with you, we have established a matrix by statement balance and period that describes the self -pay collections process from first statement to collections. As part of our program, we have established: • Accounts receivable policies and procedures • Pre -collections policies and procedures • Payment plan policies and procedures • Small balance write-off policies and procedures Page 21 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKESSON We make every attempt, including establishing payment plans according to your policies, to keep accounts from being sent for collection agency activity. At any time a payment is made within the statement cycle, we restart the process and continue to make every effort to collect the outstanding balances. We have always and will always treat all of your patients with respect. It is why we have had very few patient complaints in the last 20 years. We do this while still pursuing revenue as aggressively as possible, particularly from governmental and commercial payers. The proof that we are also extracting as much as possible from your self -pay population is in the amounts collected by Penn Credit, your collection agency. Penn Credit only collects about one to two percent of what McKesson send to collections. This is not because Penn is doing a bad job; it is because McKesson is doing an outstanding job of finding patient insurance information and pursing all self -pay accounts before they are sent to collections. 2) Provide examples of the type and series of collection notices that are proposed and indicate chronological stages of their use in the individual collection process. We have provided samples of our patient correspondence in the Appendix section of our proposal. Once the initial claim is sent to primary and secondary providers, we send out subsequent bills on a 30-, 60-, and sometimes 90-day billing cycle following the date of the initial bill. 3) State the length of time a collection activity is maintained by Proposer before the particular account is downgraded or considered uncollectible. At the end of the billing cycle, any remaining balance is designated for write-off and is either written off in total or forwarded to a collection agency as dictated by the City. We currently keep accounts for six to eight months from the time the account has a self -pay balance before sending the account to collections. We work with patients to setup payment plans whenever possible to avoid sending an account to collections. The patient receives a combination of statements and letter, plus a TeleConnect call, depending on the financial class and billing cycle the patient is in. The proof of our success with this process is in the amount collected by your collection agency, Penn Credit. Penn Credit is collecting only between one and two percent of the amounts sent over by McKesson. This means that McKesson is collecting on almost every account that can be collected. There are always patients that will not respond until their account is sent to collection and their credit report is affected, which is certainly a collection agency function. 4) Describe Proposer's collection procedures. As your current billing services provider, we have already established mutually acceptable billing policies and account follow-up procedures. Focused on these parameters, account follow- up specialists monitor your interests. Page 22 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MKESSON Insurance McKesson staff will monitor all billing data submitted for reimbursement to alert us of any potential delay in payment. Special system alerts automatically identify claims that are reaching unacceptable aging limits based on the current claim responsibility. Our account follow-up staff addresses claims early in the aging process to ensure optimal cash collections. They follow a strict protocol of corrective action as outstanding balances reach critical aging points. We select our account follow-up personnel because they possess a special skill set that ensures dedication to the task and persuasive communication. We prepare and train our personnel to work with both insurance companies and patients to collect the outstanding A/R effectively. Reporting on production is critical. We generate daily reports to monitor productivity and cash flow metrics. We set target performance measures for each McKesson account and we use reporting tools track activity to reach these goals. Setting goals and monitoring performance becomes an integral part of our operations. Medicare We process Medicare claims, as we do all third party payers, through a daily series of front-end edits on the McKesson system designed to stop any incomplete claim. We can correct and submit a clean claim for billing by identifying claims issues at this early stage. A claim submitted through the McKesson Exchange will be subjected to additional edits and payer specific requirements. Claims caught at this stage will be denied internally and reported on a claim rejection report for repair. Medicare will receive claims processed successfully through the Exchange and will issue payment or denials. We receive response from Medicare electronically where payment terminates the process and denial prompts investigation. McKesson will investigate the reason for denial and take steps to resolve any discrepancy of opinion. We will pursue payment via the Medicare appeals and fair hearing process to obtain proper payment. We track all action taken to resolve claim denial issues closely. Medicare Denial Specialists work them to completion. Medicaid As stated in the Medicare section above, the process for all third party payers is similar. Where pathways are slightly different and filing timelines are different, we direct our processing pathways at ensuring accurate billing and collections in a timely manner. We check all private patients for Medicaid eligibility as well as confirm status of all Medicaid patients against the Medicaid database. Page 23 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MKESSON We also thoroughly review all Medicaid claims to ensure that they meet all Medicaid medical necessity guidelines. If a Medicaid claim does not meet the guidelines, we do not bill it. We process Medicaid claims and receive payments electronically where available. Setting the McKesson system up to recognize proper payment and adjustment is necessary for all third party payers that provide this information. We monitor governmental payers for expected payment cycles. Where reports indicate that claims have fallen outside these expected measures, we have trained our staff to investigate and identify immediately any issue that may result in slow payment or unwarranted denials. The Medicaid claim cycle completes once McKesson confirms that the charges were paid appropriately and the balance is adjusted to zero. We will not bill Medicaid patients directly for any portion of the charge. Timeframe: Daily, as alerted by system and reports. Self -Pay For self -pay accounts, we base our follow-up philosophy on a mutually developed strategy after assessment of your department's accounts receivables rather than basing it on level of difficulty to collect or a pre -determined calculation. Typically, we send three self -pay statements and make at least one phone call over a 90-day timeframe. We will use your small balance criteria to send statements and letters on small balance accounts. Teaming with you, we will mutually establish a matrix by statement balance and period that describes the self -pay collections process from first statement to collections. As part of the implementation process, you will work with us to establish: • Accounts receivable policies and procedures • Pre -collections policies and procedures • Payment plan policies and procedures • Small balance write-off policies and procedures We make every attempt, including establishing payment plans according to your policies, to keep accounts from being sent for collection agency activity. At any time a payment is made within the statement cycle, we restart the process and continue to make every effort to collect the outstanding balances. Timeframe: Daily, as alerted by -system -and -reports. Appeal processing McKesson specializes in denial management and revenue optimization. As such, we must re -file any insurance denial and manage the outcome. All of our clients benefit from our denial monitoring and re -filing services. Page 24 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MKESSON McKesson knows what payer requirements are, what format they want their claims forms in, what edits they use, how modifiers should be used, and what is going to be denied. We will identify opportunities to optimize reimbursement, such as correct coding edits. McKesson Strengths: • McKesson has the Gold Standard Compliance Program. We keep up with all regulatory changes in the industry. • McKesson uses the Fraud and Abuse Management Systems (FAMS) that the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services uses to audit the provider community. • McKesson has created a catalog of behavior patterns that identify when a claim falls within normal parameters. Additionally McKesson will: • Perform a thorough analysis to identify the top reasons for denials. • Establish standardized reject and denial codes for tracking purposes. • Introduce send back forms to be used before the claim goes out. If a coder is uncertain of a diagnosis or documentation determines a claim is not a payable diagnosis or the diagnosis cannot be coded, this can significantly reduce the number of denials before the claim goes to the payer. • Develop a reporting system to track denials and measure progress (including user- friendly reports with drill -down capabilities for detailed analysis) . • Use the hard data to drive your corrective actions. Prioritize denial problems based on revenue impact. • Provide well -trained, experienced personnel to work back -end denial reports, do the research, obtain additional information, and re -file the claim • Use denial data to implement corrective actions on the front end. This turns a denied claim into a payable claim prior to submission and speeds up cash. Timeframe: Daily, as alerted by system and reports. Co-insurance / supplemental insurance processing Where patients have co-insurance/supplemental insurance, our system will produce a claim after receiving payment from the primary payer. We process these secondary claims through the _McKesson Exchange and PrintandMail Serviceslasercenter, where they will beproducedon -- payer specific claim forms. Timeframe: Daily, within 24 hours of primary payment. Page 25 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKESSON Private pay account processing and follow-up Where we have issued all third party payments and adjustments and claim balances become the patient's responsibility, a patient will automatically become eligible to receive a statement for the balance. Eligible patients will receive City -formatted billing statements directly from the McKesson Statement print and Laser Center. Here all statements are printed, folded, stuffed in envelopes, and prepared for mailing with automation. Each statement communicates every transaction to the patient on a line item basis. We provide a toll -free telephone number for patients to discuss any questions regarding the billing process with a McKesson Account Representative. As an alternative to calling the toll -free number, patients can also access information regarding their account via our patient portal called PerYourHealth.com. This allows patients to view statements, update demographic and insurance information, as well as get answers to balance related questions 24/7. Timeframe: Daily, within 24 hours of primary payment. Establishment of payment plans The McKesson EMS Billing system can establish patient payment plans easily. We will provide this service as deemed necessary by the City. You can also establish minimum amounts. Timeframe: As necessary. For self -pay accounts, we base our follow-up philosophy on a mutually developed strategy after assessment of your department's accounts receivables rather than basing it on level of difficulty to collect or a pre -determined calculation. Typically, we send three self -pay statements and make at least one phone call over a 90-day timeframe. We will use your small balance criteria to send statements and letters on small balance accounts. Teaming with you, we will mutually establish a matrix by statement balance and period that describes the self -pay collections process from first statement to collections. As part of the implementation process, you willwork with us to establish: — Accounts receivable policies and procedures — Pre -collections policies and procedures — Payment plan policies and procedures — Small balance write-off policies and procedures We make every attempt, including establishing payment plans according to your policies, to keep accounts from being sent for collection agency activity. At any time a payment is made Page 26 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MESON within the statement cycle, we restart the process and continue to make every effort to collect the outstanding balances. 5) Describe the Proposer's capabilities to accommodate electronic transfer of accounts, computer disk and/or hard copy paper files. We are able to accommodate any method of data transfer, electronic or hardcopy, and do so for the City today. We currently have a robust interface with your current ePCR system SafetyPAD. We have modified that interface as required each time the City has changed ePCR vendors (about three times through the years). We have a dedicated team of McKesson programmers that work only on interfaces, and are able to modify the data interfaces quickly. We also have several methods of sharing confidential data with the City, from secure email to SFT sites. We have even developed an internal tool named Slingshot that is capable of handling files over 10mbs which regular email cannot handle. We currently use our SFTP solution to share data files with the City of Miami. 6) Describe the methods the Proposer accepts for payment (i.e., credit card, check, etc.). We accept all methods of payment from your patients including credit card, check, and PayPal. Patients can access our online portal or call the toll -free number to make a payment on their account. 7) Describe Proposer's ability to fulfill the reporting requirements, as described in the Scope of Services, Section 3.0 (14). As your current billing services provider, we already provide the City with the reports described in the Scope of Services, Section. 3.0 (14) . We will continue to provide these reports to the City. The City can request additional reports at any time for no additional cost. 8) Provide samples of the proposed billing forms/invoices described in the Billing Services, Section 3.0 (5) (g) and (h). We have provided samples of the billing forms/invoices in the Appendix section of our proposal. 9) Describe Proposers systematic plan for determining over payments and assuring refunds are provided to patients or third party providers within three months of overpayment/credit status. Refunds Fromtimeto time, -overpayments -occur onpatientaccounts due to many reasons including the insurance company and the patient both paid the bill; the patient paid the bill twice; the insurance company paid the bill twice, etc. When we discover an overpayment, one of our employees not involved with the previous transaction(s) will validate the refund. We will perform all procedures in accordance with internal policy, client contracts, and governmental regulations. We will maintain documentation of any action taken. Page 27 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKESSON In the case of a patient overpayment or upon receiving direction from the related third party, a refund check request shall be prepared and forwarded to the client (or McKesson personnel as appropriate), who then prepares and sends the refund check. Only validated refunds may generate a refund check request. The City states that refunds must be handled within three months. McKesson actually handles all refunds within 60 days. That policy was written by our compliance department and is executed by our operational staff to ensure compliance with all governmental regulations. 10) Include a narrative that details the complaint procedures, including the resolution process that will be followed in the event a complaint is received from a client or their representative. As an important part of our business, we are committed to excellent customer service. We understand our customer service department is an extension of your organization and we train our staff to be courteous and helpful when responding to EMS patient phone calls. Our goal is to satisfy all caller issues quickly and courteously. However, callers who feel the customer service representative is not helpful or is responding inappropriately will have the option to speak with the team supervisor to resolve the issue. In this case, the team supervisor enters a brief recap of the call on the patient notes screen of the customer service software at the end of the call. The supervisor then debriefs the customer service representative and provides any coaching required. Should instances of caller complaints continue regarding the same customer service representative, we will re-train him or her. Further incidents could result in employee termination. Complaints regarding the customer service department will be forwarded to an assigned contact within your organization. Additionally, all of our executive staff employees can be accessed virtually 24/7 by any of your key administrative personnel to respond to any issues or inquiries. As the City of Miami is aware, we have received a minimal number of patient complaints in the last 20 years. Whenever there has been a patient that is not satisfied, we have quickly relayed that information to City personnel. Every instance has been resolved. We hope to continue to give your patients and City excellent customer service for years to come.

Page 30 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MESON Response to Scope of Services 3. Transition The Successful Proposer shall have sixty (60) days from award of the contract to transition the services from the incumbent vendor to the Selected Proposer's system. The Department will coordinate the Successful Proposer's activities with the incumbent vendor to ensure an orderly transition. Moreover, a seamless data conversion must occur with incumbent vendor. During the "transitional period" the Successful Proposer shall maintain "current existing performance levels" with regard to billing and collections. A 2% or less margin of deviation will be considered acceptable. As your current billing vendor, McKesson is the only company that can state with 100% confidence that we will be able to continue providing services on day one of a new contract with the City. By staying with McKesson, the City will not experience any interruption in cash flow or customer service. The Successful Proposer will not receive compensation during this transitional period and shall be limited to the fees provided in the Price Schedule. The Successful Proposer, in carrying out the above, will be expected to cooperate with the Department and other City agencies in determining the training, forms, requirements, necessary files and other materials and services required to initiate and maintain these operations. This does not apply to McKesson as there will not be a transition period. 4. Services to be Provided Successful Proposer shall: a) Have the ability to accept data from the Department or its electronic Patient Care Reporting system (ePCR) provider and accurately process billings; We currently accept data from the Department and its ePCR system to accurately process billings. We receive a daily billing file and reconcile the billing system to files received to ensure that we bill all accounts. We would like to enhance the audit trail of accounts received to accounts billed comparing the "Case Number" in the SafetyPAD system to the Case Number imported into the McKesson billing system. We can interface with any ePCR system the City were to choose in -the -future.. -We have -rewritten -the interface three -times for --the City. b) Retrieve all data from incumbent billing provider and download into Successful Proposer's database; As the incumbent billing provider, we will not need to establish any data transfers with other vendors. Page 31 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 IKESSON c) Have the ability to access and resume service on previously billed accounts; and We will continue billing patient accounts as we currently do today on day one of the new contract with the City. There will be no downtime or transition activities. d) Have the ability to produce required reports including but not limited to financial and management reports. We currently produce all reports requested by the City of Miami, including financial and management reports. We can create any new reports for the City as requested at no additional charge. If the data is in our system, we can report on it. In addition to the above, the Successful Proposer shall: a) Clearly demonstrate the ability to delineate and operate a fail-safe Data Recovery Project Plan and System should a disaster or unanticipated down time occur; To avoid malfunction -related data loss, we back up all systems nightly and store 60 days of backups in an on -site fireproof vault. We send weekly backups to offsite secure storage for additional protection. In the event of a business interruption/ disaster, there are sufficient redundancies built into the configuration to ensure that adequate resources are available to continue processing your organization's business. Having our system servers housed in a secure data center affords us the capability to become a mobile office and/or to shift work to another of our 50 offices throughout the country. We have data lines and communications across all power grids in the United States. Our employees can access the system via the McKesson network configuration, Internet access using VPN, and telephone / modem connections. Should a disaster occur in your city or the Center of Excellence managing your accounts, we can make your data available to other power grids for processing at one of our other locations. Should a disaster occur at our North Druid Hills, Georgia Data Center, we have contracted with IBM's VSR silver service (virtualized server recovery- a cloud recovery solution) and IBM Enterprise Recovery for hot site services for servers not qualified under VSR. This DR program is a hybrid solution. We back up our systems to IBM's Sterling Forest, New York location daily. Special 800 numbers are published and provided to our staff for them to call, Recorded. messages include important contact numbers so that we can aid in the process of relocation of essential operations staff to one of our other Center of Excellence offices that is out of harm's way. Through regular testing of our system failure and disaster plans, we have implemented the -necessary policies- procedures, and resources to either restore data from backup or switch production to another McKesson Center of Excellence within one day. During one of the many hurricanes to hit Miami a few years ago, the McKesson building lost power for over two weeks. We were able to access our billing system, including our IP phones from a large conference center that still exists within the office complex where our building is Page 32 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of'Miami May 18, 2016 I KESSON located. We were able to continue to process accounts and even receive patient phone calls with minimal interruption to operations and no interruption to cash flow. b) Provide a thorough description of the technology that will be utilized (Le., hardware, software, database, security and network infrastructure). Unlike most other billing vendors, we own virtually every significant software system, tool, and process involved in revenue cycle management. Owning all pieces of the billing process end -to - end allows us to eliminate paperwork, accelerate processing, and reduce costs through automated processing. Those end -to -end billing processes include: • Our EMS Coding front-end process marries electronic patient care records to hospital patient demographic/insurance records and allows our staff to code your transport and prepare it for billing to the appropriate insurance carrier. • A benefit to the City of Miami is the quality reporting on crewmembers and signature capture through our EMS Coding reporting system. EMS Coding provides an unmatched tool for managing hospital electronic interfaces maintained for you, allowing us to identify poor performing interfaces for process improvement purposes. EMS Coding also provides an eloquent tool to manage and inventory PCRs records queued up for billing purposes, allowing us to monitor the number of PCRs waiting to be processed. • A team of 29 professionals, including nine full-time programmers, provides customization to our proprietary billing platform, MDIV to meet your program requirements. Using our own billing software system allows us to respond rapidly to changes in the market for our expanding client base. • Relay Health, our internal electronic clearinghouse, used by many billing vendors to manage their electronic transactions. Our system manages over 1.9 billion financial transactions annually, valued at over $1.1 trillion, Many billing vendors actually use McKesson's clearinghouse solution to manage their electronic transactions. Relay Health also provides an online insurance verification tool, providing the ability to confirm insurance coverage before filing a claim. • Our own patient payment portal, PerYourHealth, allows your patients to update their demographic/insurance information, make payments online, download patient statements, and even provide an e-signature for those cases where a proper signature was not captured at the time of transport. • Our data warehouse facilitates data flow. Each day, every client's billing and accounts receivable activity information feeds into the data warehouse for storage. We also use this data to generate reports. Page 33 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKESSON c) Demonstrate and describe its plan for achieving compliance with the Transaction and Code Set, Security and Privacy regulations under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPPA); and McKesson is in full compliance with all HIPAA rules and regulations. We send ICD-10 Diagnosis codes to all payers, including Medicare and we file everything electronically to Medicare (no paper) . Our ability to submit successfully to all payers is proof of our compliance with HIPAA TCS. In addition, we use an outside vendor to validate our Local Medicare Review Policies (LMRP) and Correct Coding Initiatives (CCI) edits. McKesson has developed specific HIPAA-compliant policies and procedures for Privacy and Security compliance as listed below, Our compliance with PCI and HIPAA regulations is audited at least quarterly. General Policies • HIPAA Privacy Structure • Privacy Questions, Complaints and Incidents • Minimum Necessary • Computer Information Security • Employee HIPAA Privacy Training • Electronic Transmission of PHI - Email • Electronic Transmission of PHI — Fax • PHI Outside of McKesson RMS Controlled Facilities • Media Management • Physical Access • Personally Identifiable Information (PII) & Protected Health Information (PHI) Work In Process Storage • Working Remotely • Business Associates • Disclosures and Accounting of Disclosures • External Communication of HIPAA Policies • De -Identified Protected Health Information (PHI) • Marketing of Protected Health Information (PHI) • Protecting Credit and Debit Card Information Page 34 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 M KES ON Interacting With Patients • Handling a Patient's Request for Confidential Communications • Handling a Patient's Request for Restrictions to Protect Their Healthcare Information • Communicating With Patient's Representatives • Patient's Right to Copies of Confidential Health Information d) Demonstrate established relationships with insurance providers to ensure a timely collection of relevant insurance information. As your current billing vendor, and as a vendor with a strong presence in Florida, we have established relationships with insurance providers and collect relevant insurance information in a timely manner. Our strong presence in Florida is not just in EMS billing, we also bill for other specialties throughout the state such as radiology, pathology, emergency room physicians and anesthesiologist. This large billing volume has allowed us to create special relationships with Florida payers that no other vendor can match. In addition, we have electronic data interface with your largest transport hospitals, which provides us with another reliable method of receiving patient insurance and demographic information. We also subscribe to all available governmental and third party data bases to search for missing patient demographic and insurance information. Our McKesson owned claims clearinghouse, Relay Health, is also used to check insurance coverage. 5. Billing Services The Successful Proposer shall employ, maintain and assign an adequate number of competent and qualified professionals, as deemed necessary by the Department to meet the performance requirements. The Successful Proposer shall take the necessary steps in terms of billing patients, following -up with patients via mail, phone, or other available communications means, to maintain the same, or higher collection levels as the incumbent vendor during calendar year 2014/2015. The Selected Proposer shall transfer any uncollectible accounts to the Department at the request of the Department. We are currently able to meet performance requirements in handling your accounts and maximizing your revenue. Our experienced staff, which no other vendor will be able to duplicate, is the reason for our consistently great service and collection achievements. We always strive to outdo ourselves and are constantly looking for ways to improve the process for the City of Miami. As of this writing, our cash collections are up over $1.8 million compared to last fiscal. year. Page 35 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKE SON Pursuant to the Scope of Services, the Successful Proposer shall perform all services and/or work necessary to complete the following tasks and/or provide the following items: a) Electronic Receipts of Billing Information from Department: The Successful Proposer shall have the capability to receive all billing information from the Department and/or its ePCR provider in a standard electronic format. We currently receive all billing information from the Department and its ePCR provider, SafetyPAD, electronically. We can enhance or write new interfaces as required by the City at no additional charge. b) Electronic Claims Submission: The Successful Proposer shall provide the capability to transmit/submit claims electronically to Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurance carriers. We use Relay Health, our McKesson -owned, internal electronic clearinghouse, for transmission to over 1,800 payers, including governmental (Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, etc.) and commercial, to manage their electronic transactions. Our system manages over 1.9 billion financial transactions annually, valued at over $1.1 trillion. Relay Health also provides an online insurance verification tool, providing the ability to confirm insurance coverage before filing a claim. All of these tools are currently used by McKesson to process the City of Miami claims. No other billing vendor owns a clearinghouse or has control over the entire process as McKesson does. c) Patient Information: The Successful Proposer shall take action to obtain any necessary information which. may not be in the initial account file. The Successful Proposer shall enter into a business associate agreement with area hospitals to obtain patient information in accordance with Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act (HIPPA). We understand the challenges the City of Miami faces in collecting patient demographic and insurance information in the field. This is why we use several methods to obtain any necessary information not contained in the initial account file including, electronic interfaces with your transport hospitals, manual lookups at transport hospitals, request for information letters to patients, skip tracing services, etc. We do not stop until we are certain that a patient simply does not have insurance coverage, and even then we insure that all of the patient demographic information is complete, The City of Miami is a unique mix of tourists, impoverished areas, and theelderly,_ which. is unique to any other agency in the United States. McKesson is the only vendor that can truly understand the intricacies in dealing with the challenges faced in processing claims for the City of Miami and in finding much needed and hard to get patient demographic and insurance information. Any other vendor would take years to learn what it takes to work with the City of Miami, years that will mean loss of revenue to the City, which can never be recovered. Page 36 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 M"KESSON We have existing business associate agreements with area hospitals and obtain patient information from them in a HIPAA-compliant manner today. d) Insurance Reviews: The Successful Proposer shall perform all necessary insurance follow-ups to assure maximum collection on claims. McKesson and the City have established acceptable billing policies and account follow-up procedures. Focused on these parameters, account follow-up specialists monitor your interests. Insurance McKesson staff monitor all billing data submitted for reimbursement to alert us of any potential delay in payment. Special system alerts automatically identify claims that are reaching unacceptable aging limits based on the current claim responsibility. Our account follow-up staff addresses claims early in the aging process to ensure optimal cash collections. They follow a strict protocol of corrective action as outstanding balances reach critical aging points. We select our account follow-up personnel because they possess a special skill set that ensures dedication to the task and persuasive communication. We prepare and train our personnel to work with both insurance companies and patients to collect the outstanding A/R effectively. Reporting on production is critical. We generate daily reports to monitor productivity and cash flow metrics. We set target performance measures for each McKesson account and we use reporting tools track activity to reach these goals. Setting goals and monitoring performance becomes an integral part of our operations. Medicare We process Medicare claims, as we do all third party payers, through a daily series of front-end edits on the McKesson system designed to stop any incomplete claim. We can correct and submit a clean claim for billing by identifying claims issues at this early stage. A claim submitted through the McKesson Exchange will be subjected to additional edits and payer specific requirements. Claims caught at this stage will be denied internally and reported on a claim rejection report for repair. Medicare will receive claims processed successfully through the Exchange and will issue payment or denials. We receive response from Medicare electronically where payment terminates the process and denial prompts investigation. McKesson will investigate the reason for denial and take steps to resolve any discrepancy of opinion. We will pursue payment via the Medicare appeals and fair hearing process to obtain proper payment. We track all action taken to resolve claim denial issues closely. Medicare Denial Specialists work them to completion. Page 37 Emergency Medical Transport Pilling & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKESSON Medicaid As stated in the Medicare section above, the process for all third party payers is similar. Where pathways are slightly different and filing timelines are different, we direct our processing pathways at ensuring accurate billing and collections in a timely manner. We check all private patients for Medicaid eligibility as well as confirm status of all Medicaid patients against the Medicaid database. We also thoroughly review all Medicaid claims to ensure that they meet all Medicaid medical necessity guidelines. If a Medicaid claim does not meet the guidelines, we do not bill it. We process Medicaid claims and receive payments electronically where available. Setting the McKesson system up to recognize proper payment and adjustment is necessary for all third party payers that provide this information. We monitor governmental payers for expected payment cycles. Where reports indicate that claims have fallen outside these expected measures, we have trained our staff to investigate and identify immediately any issue that may result in slow payment or unwarranted denials. The Medicaid claim cycle completes once McKesson confirms that the charges were paid appropriately and the balance is adjusted to zero. We will not bill Medicaid patients directly for any portion of the charge. Timeframe: Daily, as alerted by system and reports. Self -Pay For self -pay accounts, we base our follow-up philosophy on a mutually developed strategy. We currently send a combination of three statements and letters along with a TeleConnect call, depending on the financial class and billing cycle of the patient. We will continue to use your small balance criteria to send statements and letters on small balance accounts. Teaming with you, we established a matrix by statement balance and period that describes the self -pay collections process from first statement to collections. We have worked with you to establish: • Accounts receivable policies and procedures • Pre -collections policies and procedures • Payment plan policies and procedures • Small balance write-off policies and procedures We make every attempt, including establishing payment plans according to your policies, to keep accounts from being sent for collection agency activity. At any time a payment is made within the statement cycle, we restart the process and continue to make every effort to collect the outstanding balances. Page 38 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 M KESSON Timeframe: Daily, as alerted by system and reports. e) Medicare/Medicaid: The Successful Proposer shall comply with all Medicare, Medicaid, and HIPAA rules and regulations. The Successful Proposer shall enter into a business associate agreement with the Department. This shall include keeping abreast of all Medicare, Medicaid, insurance, and other health care issues which may impact payments to the Department for emergency transports. The Successful Proposer shall review each Patient Care Report (PCR) narrative to make a level of service determination based on Medicaid guidelines, prior to releasing claims to Medicaid. We have and always will comply with all Medicare, Medicaid, and HIPAA rules and regulations when handling City accounts. We have an existing business associate agreement with the Department and will execute another one for this new contract to ensure we maintain compliance at all times. Our compliance department maintains current knowledge of all applicable laws and regulations affecting medical billing. We regularly distribute ReveNews, a McKesson -published newsletter dedicated to divulging information related to regulatory affairs. In addition, your staff will continue to be in regular contact with our team to discuss any changes to billing requirements. We will provide on -going training to you as necessary. As stated earlier in our response, we understand the unique challenges faced by the City in processing Florida Medicaid claims and the risks associated with improperly filing claims to governmental payers. Other local municipalities that do not use McKesson have had issues with both Medicaid and Medicare claims. Our compliance department mitigates those risks by having strong policies regarding how Medicare and Florida Medicaid claims are files. The important part of any policy is in its execution. This is where the experience of McKesson employees comes in. No other company can boast the years of experience our staff has. We process governmental claims with strong and strict adherence to our compliance polices. When audits do happen, you know that McKesson will be taking the lead in handling the audit for the City, just as we have done many times before. We do not throw it on your lap and make it the City's problem to resolve. This is all part of excellence in customer service, and frankly, it's the right thing to do. As personnel that have been with the City for years can attest, these are not just words. McKesson has taken the lead in all Florida Medicaid audits that have occurred throughout the years. More importantly, we have had successful outcomes to all of those audits. The City has not been part of any Medicare audits. f) Crossover Eligibility: The Successful Proposer is responsible for identifying and securing payments due to crossover eligibility, co-insurance, deductibles, etc. Where patients have co-insurance or supplemental insurance, our system will produce a claim after receiving payment from the primary payer. We process these secondary claims through the Page 39 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKESSON McKesson Exchange and Print and Mail Services laser center, where they will be produced on payer specific claim forms. Deductibles and other situations are easily handled by the McKesson billing system and are billed appropriately depending on the situation. g) Timely Billings: The Successful Proposer shall be expected to bill emergency transport patients and/or file patient insurance within 30 days upon receiving transport information from the Department. In the event the information is unattainable, the Department expects a CLAIM to be Bled as soon as the information required is obtained, and in all cases an invoice be sent to patients with valid addresses. A sample of the billings/invoice shall be included in the proposal. We will continue to bill emergency transport patients and/or file patient insurance claims within 30 days, often sooner. We will file all claims as soon as we have obtained the required information. We have provided sample invoices in the Appendix section of our proposal. h) Follow-up Billings and Procedures: The Successful Proposer shall have a detailed plan and procedure for claim follow-up to assure maximum collection. Please refer to our response to the section titled Proposed Approach to Providing the Services, specifically the description beginning on page 37. The Successful Proposer shall be expected to re -bill emergency transport patients and/or patients' insurance claims on unpaid balances. This invoice shall reflect detail account activity, including but not limited to, the Department patient account number, original billing amount, detail payment information, and account balance. A sample of the rebill/invoice shall be included in the proposal. Our billing and collection cycle solution provides the City with lower costs, increased collections, and more effective accounts receivable management. We achieve this by using our Lean Six Sigma best practice process management including specific billing protocols, pre -claims submission editing follow-up, along with payer -specific claims follow-up guidelines, patient/guarantor billing and follow-up, client and staff education, and the overall application of our management methodologies which have proven very effective in other comparable companies. - We have detailed plans and procedures in place for the Cityof Miami, which we have tweaked and followed throughout the years to ensure maximum collections. Our statements contain all the required information and can be modified further to meet any future needs of the City. We have provided samples of our patient invoices in the Appendix section of our proposal. Page 40 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKESSON i) Current Database: The Successful Proposer shall be able to merge current open accounts from the Department or its ePCR provider and current provider billing system. In addition, the Successful Proposer shall grant access to authorized Department employees to the Successful Proposer's billing database, including the ability to search for patient information by one or more of the following fields: patient name, date of service, Successful Proposer patient account number, or Department patient account number. Department employees will also be granted access to print patient account statements, similar to those requested by and mailed to the patient by the Successful Proposer. As the current billing vendor, no transitional activities need to take place, and there will be no revenue loss for the City. There will also be no "learning curve" as there would be with another vendor, which could also lead to unrecoverable revenue loss to the City. The City of Miami can have access to our billing system at any time. Our portal has the ability to allow the City personnel to print or download patient statements and meets all of the other requirements listed. j) Refunds: The Successful Proposer shall establish a systematic plan for determining overpayments and assuring refunds to patients or third party payers are processed within three (3) months from the date when the account goes into overpayment/credit balance status. A copy of this plan shall be included in the proposal. Refunds From time to time, overpayments occur on patient accounts due to many reasons including the insurance company and the patient both paid the bill; the patient paid the bill twice; the insurance company paid the bill twice, etc. When we discover an overpayment, one of our employees not involved with the previous transaction(s) will validate the refund. We will perform all procedures in accordance with internal policy, client contracts, and governmental regulations. We will maintain documentation of any action taken. In the case of a patient, overpayment or upon receiving direction from the related third party, a refund check request shall be prepared and forwarded to the City (or McKesson personnel as appropriate) , who then prepares and sends the refund check. Only validated refunds may generate a refund check request. Page 41 Emergency Medical Transport Uilling & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MESON k) Patient Account Numbering System: All patient account numbers must be cross-referenced with the Department incident number. The Department incident number is in a calendar year -number format and will be sent to the Successful Proposer as a two -digit year, a five digit incident number. For example, an incident number for three patients on one call, will be forwarded to the Successful Proposer as Department patient account number 14- 00001 representing patient one, account 14- 00002 representing patient two, and account number 14-00003 representing patient three. Regardless of the patient account numbering system used by the Successful Proposer, the Successful Proposer shall provide the Department patient account number on all billings and patient correspondence including, but not limited to, the patient account statement and all monthly reports. Additionally, the Successful Proposer shall provide the Department access to the Successful Proposer's database with the ability to search for patient information by one or more of the following fields: patient name, date of service, Successful Proposer patient account number, or Department patient account number. All patient account numbers currently cross-reference with Department incident numbers. The patient account number will continue to appear on all billings and patient correspondence, including patient account statements and monthly reports. As mentioned previously, the Department's authorized individuals have inquiry access to the billing solution and can search for patient information using any field contained within the system. 1) Probate Claims: The Successful Proposer shall be responsible for filing probate claims, when applicable, on behalf of the Department. All requests for Satisfaction of Claims shall be forwarded to the Department for approval and signature. We will continue to file probate claims on behalf of the Department as necessary and forward all requests for satisfaction of claims to the Department for approval and signature. 6. Personal Injury Protection (PIP) Claims Review Successful Proposer shall: a) Diligently and expeditiously process PIP insurance claims with the PIP insurer. We will continue to process PIP insurance claims with the PIP insurer diligently and expeditiously. Page 42 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKESSON b) Coordinate its services relating to auto -related emergency transport accounts with those of the attorney retained by the Department to provide legal services relating to PIP insurance claims (PIP Attorney), in order to enable and ensure maximized collection efforts for auto -related emergency transport accounts. Successful Proposer and PIP Attorney shall work cooperatively to coordinate their efforts and do so in accordance with any applicable laws, including but not limited to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and HIPAA. Coordination of services and timeframes between Successful Proposer and the PIP Attorney will be coordinated through the Department staff. To maximize collection efforts, we will continue to coordinate services relating to auto -related emergency transport accounts with those of the attorney retained by the Department. All. interactions will comply with applicable laws, including FDCPA and HIPAA. c) Diligently and expeditiously research PIP information for auto -related accounts without PIP information; after which accounts that are still missing necessary PIP information shall be promptly referred to PIP Attorney for additional research of PIP information. We will continue to research all necessary information for auto -related accounts without PIP information diligently and expeditiously. We will promptly refer accounts that are still missing necessary PIP information to the PIP attorney for additional research. d) Provide all auto -related account information to PIP Attorney on a regular basis to enable PIP Attorney to review accounts and take legal action, if warranted, to maximize PIP payments. We will provide all auto -related account information to the PIP Attorney on a regular basis as requested by the City. e) Provide department with a summary report showing PIP account number, account status, billed amount, collected amount, adjusted amount, date referred to PIP Attorney (if any) and outcome.

At the end of each calendar month Selected Proposer shall send an invoice to the Department with collection details of all Department transports entered in the Selected Proposer's billing system from the preceding month. Payments to the Selected Proposer will be made by the Department after satisfactory reconciliation of the invoices.

We will comply with this provision. 8. Receipt of Funds a) Lock Box: The Successful Proposer shall be required to establish a "lock box" for all receipts under this Contract. This lock box shall be established with a financial institution under Contract with the Department. All customer and third party receipts are to be mailed to the designated lock box for accounting of deposits. The Successful Proposer shall make arrangement to have copies of all deposits and backup forwarded to them from the financial institution. We will continue to use the existing Wells Fargo lockbox for all receipts under the new contract. All customer and third party receipts are mailed to the lockbox - McKesson never handles the Department's receipts. We have an established process with your bank to receive all necessary copies of documentation related patient payments. b) Receipt Posting: The .routine function of posting charges, receipts, account balances, etc. are never to exceed seven (7) working days from receipt of same. Copies of all deposits and back-up information shall be provided to the Department within seven (7) working days of deposit. Our payment -posting specialists handle the posting of payments. As a standard practice, they perforrn line item payment posting on a daily basis for allpayer and patient payments, as well as Page 44 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKE SON deductibles, allowances, and denials. When posting payments, receipt date and deposit date are posted by line item to the date of service. We post zero payments with an explanatory note for tracking purposes. Balancing to the charge transaction level is required. We will continue to provide the Department with copies of all deposits and back-up information within seven working days of the deposit. The same personnel have been handling the payment posting functions for the City of Miami since the 1990s. c) Credit Cards: The Successful Proposer shall be required to establish a method to accept and record credit cards from patients electronically. With McKesson's innovative transported patient web portal, PerYourHealth.com, your customers can securely access their balances, print out their statement or save it as a PDF file, update demographic and insurance information, and make payments via credit or debit card or PayPal online. Using this portal, your customers may view information about incurred charges and received payments, as well as obtain answers to many medical billing questions. Note: Department financial institution will be identified by the Department to the Successful Proposer upon Contract execution. We will continue to use the City's Wells Fargo lockbox for all deposits. 9. Service Review The Successful Proposer shall meet with a representative or representatives of the Department at a location of the Department's choosing at least Bi-:Monthly. Topics to be discussed will include differences in the expected versus actual collection rate, deficiencies in clinical and demographic documentation, ALS/BLS patient treatment, and other topics of concern to the Successful Proposer or Department. At the service review meetings the Successful Proposer will be expected to have specific suggestions for improving any deficiencies identified in either parties' documentation or processes. We will continue to meet with Department representatives bi-monthly and as needed to discuss any concerns and review performance. We always have the ability to meet onsite since our office is only 15 minutes away from Fire Administration Headquarters. We also welcome the City to visit our Doral operations center. Page 45 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 M KESS©{ 10. Data Fortnat All reports shall be provided in hard -copy form as well as CD form in a file format usable by the Department. These formats are as follows: 1. Excel 2. Text We will continue to provide all reports in hardcopy as well as on CD in either Excel or text format as preferred by the Department. All patient contacts are documented using the Department's electronic ePCR system. During a patient encounter a member of the Department documents relevant clinical and demographic information in an electronic format that is stored in a Structured Query Language (SQL) database on a server owned by the Department. The Department will provide all information relevant to billing via an electronic billing extract produced at least once every 24 hours. This data will be provided in the form of one Extensible Markup Language (xml) file per billable patient encounter. Successful Proposers will be required to demonstrate the ability to accept data in this format with little or no modification. We currently accept xml formatted files from the Department with no modification necessary. The Department is interested in maximizing the existing and planned reporting capabilities of the current ePCR vendor. To further this goal, Successful Proposers will be required to demonstrate the ability to periodically produce a demographic extract containing information related to a given patient encounter. This information is expected to include at least the amount billed for the encounter, the amount collected for the encounter, primary and secondary payers, patient's SSN (if not collected on scene), health insurance information (carrier name, policy and group number, etc.). We currently provide reports that meet the needs of the Department. Because of the flexibility of our billing system, we are able to provide the Department with enhanced reporting if desired. We can provide reports on any data field contained within our billing solution. Page 46 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MSKESSON 11. Demographic Information The Department will not always be able to obtain or provide complete demographic or insurance information to the Successful Proposer due to the emergency nature of the incidents responded to by the Department. Successful Proposer will be required to demonstrate relationships with health insurance providers and entities whose primary business is the collection, storage, and dissemination of this type of information. Successful Proposer will be required to have the ability to electronically access these databases and directly download required information. Successful Proposer will further be required to obtain electronic access to patient records at the hospitals. Ofparticular interest to the Department is a billing company's ability to obtain billing information when provided with a patient's complete driver license number. This capability is to be used to obtain demographic and insurance information that is not obtainable through other means. We are currently able to acquire patient health insurance and demographic information on the Department's behalf when we receive patient care reports with missing information and we will continue to do so. We are the only vendor that understands the unique challenges faced by the City of Miami. No other vendor can match our strong presence in Florida, in particular South Florida. We understand the Florida payers and understand how to find much needed and hard to get patient demographic and insurance info for the City of Miami. The proof of our success is not just our strong collections, but also the weak collections from your collection agency, Penn Credit. Penn only collects 2% of what McKesson refers to the collection agency. This is no accident, It is the result of the hard and expert work by the McKesson staff. 12. Mileage Calculation The Successful Proposer shall have a system that will automaticailygeocode all incident locations reported in the Department billing extract. This system must be able to calculate the mileage from an incident scene to the patient's destination hospital. We currently have this capability and will continue to leverage it for the City. Approximately one year ago, we enhanced our interface in order to calculate patient loaded miles automatically for the City of Miami based on the scene address and the hospital where the patient was transported. The City used to calculate miles using an "as the crow flies" measurement. The new McKesson method has increased the accuracy of the miles per transport calculation and has resulted in increased revenue for the City. We are always looking for ways to improve our program and increase revenue while remaining compliant with allexistingrules and regulations. Page 47 Emergency Medical Transport Billing & Collection Services City of Miami May 18, 2016 MESON 13. Claim Submission The Successful Proposer shall process all claims as expeditiously as possible. Successful Proposer shall agree to a specific processing schedule. Any file that identifies automobile insurance as the primary or secondary insurance provider will be submitted to the responsible party on the first business day that the file is in the billing companies' possession. All other files shall be submitted to the responsible party within 48 hours of receipt. Successful Proposer will be required to show the capacity to adhere to this schedule. Activity Timeframe Receipt of ePCR and related information from City Immediately upon upload, complete within 48 hours. Verification of ePCR and related information Immediately upon upload, complete within 48 hours. Validation of patient's insurance status Immediately upon upload, complete within 48 hours.

The Successful Proposer at a minimum will provide all reports provided to the Department by the incumbent. The Department will provide samples of all current reports to the Successful Proposer. The format of reports required under this contract will be determined by the. Department._ In- addition _.to the reports described below, the Successful Proposer shall provide any custom reports at the request of the Department in a mutually agreeable timeframe at no cost. As the incumbent billing provider, we will continue to provide the reports we already deliver to the Department.

SAP Business Objects, a very well respected and powerful reporting and analysis tool used by many Fortune 500 companies for internal reporting, power this tool. From high-level dashboards to drill -down and linked reports that provide the detail to make changes, McKesson Practice Focus helps get the answers needed to improve the your performance. McKesson Practice Focus includes: • Easily accessible standard reports • The ability to customize and create reports that address your unique needs The access is secure, restricted and HIPAA compliant. With an easy -to -use interface, professional administrators or anyone you employ (with the proper access privileges) will be able to drill into vital information and perform detailed analyses. You can view stored reports or create new ones. Users can also export reports to Microsoft® Excel® or save them as an Adobe® PDF. Custom dashboards, predefined alerts, dynamic charts, and flexible reports enable you to monitor key performance indicators and identify trends unique to you. This transparency will affect positive change and foster growth for the City. We have provided sample reports in the Appendix section of our proposal. 15.

Because the agency was not performing well financially, needed capital expenditures had to be delayed. Indian River zeroed in on the problem: The incumbent billing services provider's capabilities had not kept pace with the organization's needs and revenue was being lost. After an extensive search for a new partner, Indian River chose McKesson. McKesson revamped the agency's billing processes, giving Indian River the power to significantly boost collections, strengthen compliance and purchase two new ambulances. Challenges For Indian River and other emergency medical services (EMS) providers, medical billing can be problematic due to the difficulty of capturing demographic information in the field and the absence of control over patient populations. Compliance issues present another hurdle, particularly when dealing with Medicare and Medicaid populations and complex Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations. Before contracting with McKesson, Indian River's medical billing and compliance services were handled by a local firm. "It was a small organization with Limited resources and employees," explains Brian Burkeen, EMS chief. "We felt we had outgrown its capabilities. We were not satisfied that it could continue meeting our compliance needs." Answers An Indian River County review committee established criteria for selecting a new medical billing company, and an RFP was issued. Detailed reporting capabilities were a key factor in selecting the new vendor. "We wanted to be able to document the billing process, determine who was paying us and who wasn't, and determine collection trends," Burkeen explains. "We also were looking for a company with EMS experience and the ability to provide coding and documentation training." McKesson won the contract on the strength of its long experience in emergency medical services, its billing and reporting capabilities, and compliance expertise.

They provide a level of security you can't find with a smaller billing company. any EMS service that's not using Mck 'son needs o re-evaluate and ask whether it's etthng tl e most olts dollars." an urkeer EMS Chief Indian River County Fire Rescue Kesson Provider Technologies ilk 5 Windward Parkway Alpharetta, GA 30005 http://www.mckesson.com 1.800.981.8601 Results One of McKesson's first steps after partnering with Indian River was to establish electronic interfaces with each of the hospitals that receive Indian River patients. Before the first fiscal year was complete, Indian River's cash collections had jumped nearly 30%, The gross collection rate — another important benchmark that compares charges to collections — is now 66%, compared to a national average of about 50%. Through its partnership with McKesson, Indian River strengthened its compliance. "McKesson has an entire team dedicated to compliance/' Burkeen relays. "They provide a level of security you can't find with a smaller billing company. Any EMS agency that's not using McKesson needs to re-evaluate its decision and ask whether it's getting the most out of its dollars." Along with the enhanced financial performance and improved compliance, Indian River has experienced other benefits as a result of its relationship with McKesson. "The company has made the entire process painless," states Burkeen. "The management reports keep us up-to-date and we always know where our money is." Burkeen meets with the McKesson account manager monthly to review reports detailing gross and net charges, collections and accounts receivable. In addition, McKesson conducts on -site training sessions to help paramedics learn proper documentation methods for optimal billing. Thanks to Indian River's improved collections, the agency was able to acquire two new ambulances, Burkeen says. He adds that area citizens are the ultimate beneficiaries of McKesson's billing expertise. "We needed new vehicles to replace older ambulances on the fleet," explains Burkeen. "Because collections with McKesson were higher than expected, we were able to purchase replacements ahead of time to better serve the community."
