You can find this rule at 42 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section 422.101. 
 
The rules say that Medicare pays only for ambulance transport. Ambulance vehicles must be designed and 
equipped to meet certain requirements. The vehicle must have emergency warning lights, sirens, 
communications equipment, a stretcher, linens, emergency medical supplies, oxygen equipment and other life-
saving equipment. The vehicle also must be staffed with two people, one of whom is certified as an emergency 
medical technician. Medicare will not pay for transport by vehicles that do not meet these requirements. You 
can find this rule at 42 CFR Section 410.41(a). 
 
The rules say that plans may offer a supplemental benefit to provide transport not covered by original 
Medicare. The transport offered must be used only for the enrollee's health care needs, such as transport to the 
doctors office. The transport must be arranged or directly provided by the health plan. The transport may not 
be used for other than health-related purposes. You can find this rule in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid 
Services, Internet Only Manual, Publication 100-16, Medicare Managed Care Manual, Chapter 4, Section 30.3.
