In Fiscal Year 2022, city taxpayers paid 5% for FDNY EMS, recouping 95% of expenses from patients or insurers, showcasing a heavily funded service for residents.
FDNY's anticipated revenue for Emergency Medical Services was $376.2 million against a total operational cost of $396.9 million, highlighting significant reliance on external funds.
The city's Emergency Medical Services is primarily concerned with life-saving missions, reflecting a critical service, yet challenges persist regarding fair treatment and financial accountability.
Negotiations regarding the FDNY EMS compensation have been contentious, with the city seeming to resist treating EMS as a 'uniformed service' despite existing laws.
