The GAO also found that ambulance costs per transport for 2010 varied widely. Although the median cost per transport was $429, the range was from $224 to $2204. Affecting the cost were volume of transports, intensity of transports, and the extent to which providers received government subsidies. Higher volume of transports, higher proportions of nonemergency transports, and lower government subsidies were associated with lower costs per transport.
