Dallas County EMS reports 282 calls in July, provides detailed AR and collections data

Dallas County EMS included its monthly operational and financial report in the board packet. The July 2026 summary lists training and event coverage (including active-threat training and RAGBRAI support) and reports a total of 282 calls for service for the month.

The financial section contains detailed aged accounts receivable by payer (cutoff July 31, 2026) and collection metrics. The packet lists a total AR balance of $579,218.56 at the July cutoff, with 15.3% of AR over 120 days and gross days in AR of 73.85. The report breaks down receivables by payer (Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers and self-pay) and includes practice-level revenue and charge detail for July: the report shows total charges of $240,826.22 for the month and payments/adjustments that produced a net month-end AR change shown in the packet.

The EMS packet materials are presented as the department's routine monthly report for the Board’s information and include contact names and tabular exhibits for collection workflow and operational metrics; the Sept. 8 packet did not record a separate Board action on the report.
