OWENSBORO, Ky. — Changes could be coming to emergency care in Owensboro. Officials are considering re-structuring how ambulances are managed in the city. Among the ideas are letting the city run its own ambulance service. People change. Governments change. Health care changes.
“We’ve been working on this study for 10 months, and a lot of that shifting took place during that study,” says Owensboro Fire Chief Steve Mitchell.
Owensboro officials are looking at their own changes, considering eight different ways to manage ambulance service in Owensboro, ranging from public-private partnerships to those run by the city or hospitals. The changes could cost as much as $2 million.
