Mason County approves five-year EMS billing contract and moves three EMS staff to full-time
Mason County Commissioners Court on Dec. 22, 2025, approved a five-year Ambulance (EMS) Billing and Related Professional Services Agreement with K&P Associates, Inc., d/b/a Specialized Billing & Collections Systems of Texas.

The motion to approve the contract was moved by Commissioner Reggie Loeffler and seconded by Commissioner Buddy Schuessler; the minutes record that the motion carried. The minutes record the vendor name as written in court documents; spellings in meeting materials vary and the county record should be consulted for the official contract text.

In a related personnel action, the court reclassified three EMS employees from part-time to full-time with benefits. The minutes list the employees and new hourly rates: Evan Deason at $24.95 per hour, Evette Escobedo at $24.95 per hour, and Rikki Gott at $25.55 per hour. Commissioner Fred Estes moved the reclassification and Commissioner Buddy Schuessler seconded; the motion carried.

The minutes do not include contract dollar amounts, performance metrics, or detailed staffing budget impacts in the public record. The court recorded these actions in the meeting minutes (Vol. 23, pp. 804-808 for the contract; personnel actions recorded in the minutes for Dec. 22).
