What type of documentation is acceptable for ambulance mileage?

There are several ways to capture, and document loaded ambulance mileage, including:

Odometer reading
Trip odometer readings
Global Positioning System (GPS)
Navigation computers
Mapping programs (e.g., MapQuest)

These are all acceptable forms of documentation and must be kept in the patient’s record and made available to Medicare upon request.

Note: Documentation must include the name and address of the origin and destination in the trip report completed by the ambulance supplier.
