Annual Ride Ticket Program:

A ride ticket costs $25.00 annually per household and is good for one ride. With a ride ticket Crouch Ambulance will bill your insurance and accept their payment as payment in full. If you have no insurance, Crouch Ambulance accepts the ride ticket as payment in full. If you use your ride ticket you may purchase another. Funds received from ride ticket sales are dedicated to ambulance and equipment replacement, or other special projects, as is the case this year as we construct a new building to house the ambulances and rescue truck.
