SA Ambulance Service
In reply to the Hon. F. PANGALLO ().28 September 2022).
The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector): The Minister for Health and Wellbeing has been advised:
The following table displays the total fees raised by SA Ambulance Service (SAAS) less ambulance cover and pensioner concessions by financial year, 2018-19-2021-22 (in thousands):
| 2018-19 | 2019-20 | 2020-21 | 2021-22 | |
| Fees Raised | 218,518 | 236,742 | 255,661 | 239,638 |
| less | ||||
| Ambulance cover concessions | 66,542 | 69,748 | 77,078 | 70,147 |
| Pensioner Concessions | 49,464 | 52,149 | 56,616 | 51,678 |
| Ambulance Transport | $102,512 | $114,845 | $121,967 | $117,813 |
Rounding variances have been applied against pensioner concessions in this table.
SAAS's annual financial statements are prepared by Shared Services SA and, as such, a standard reporting template that complies with reporting requirements, including the Australian Accounting Standards, is applied.
As the make-up of transport fees is unique to SAAS, this was not picked up in the standard reporting requirements. While the exclusion of this information for the past three years is a matter for the former government, SAAS will work with Shared Services to see if it can be added back into future reports.
