Crozer, owned by Los Angeles-based Prospect Medical Holdings, has sent advanced life support response vehicles, which don’t transport patients but are staffed by a paramedic, to the municipalities for some time. The municipalities include Glenolden Borough, Prospect Park Borough, Tinicum Township, Norwood Borough, Ridley Park Borough, Aston Township and Brookhaven Borough.
The vehicles cost Crozer $338,000 annually for Aston and Brookhaven and $336,000 annually for Glenolden, Prospect Park, Tinicum, Norwood and Ridley Park, according to WHYY.
Crozer said in the letters that if a funding agreement isn’t made by April 22, it will end its services within 90 days, according to the report. The system has been hurt financially by the pandemic.
