1. Why bill for MVA’s?

Unprecedented financial constraints on Fire Departments across the county are causing them to be creative in their funding. When looking at fire department runs, non-resident MVAs make up 48% or more of MVAs. Fuel and apparatus cost used on MVAs contribute to the financial challenges fire departments are facing across America. With rising fuel costs, every penny collected is essential for the continuing services that you provide.

2. How much will MCA’s billing service cost us??

There are no up-front fees or hidden costs. We only charge a small percentage of what we collect for you.

3. What if the insurance company does not pay?

If the insurance company does not pay after a certain period of time, the account will go to the auditing department, then adjusted and the rest will be written off unless the patient is a non-resident then he/she will receive an invoice.

4. Will billing MVA’s increase insurance premiums?

No, there are 6.4 million MVAs in the US per year. Over 60% of the US population is paying auto insurance premiums. The average US auto premium is $776 per annum. Accident ratio is 23 out of every 1000 persons. Futhermore, breaking down the numbers show that insurance companies are profitable. This type of billing represents such a small percentage, that this would not cause premiums to be increased.
