DISCUSSION/ FINANCIAL
IMPACT:
The FireMed program partnered with Life Flight Network, LLC beginning in
May 2008 for provision of air ambulance services to FireMed members choosing
the FireMed Plus coverage. This is an amendment to continue to provide FireMed marketing, advertising, and administrative services for Life Flight.
FireMed accomplishes its’ large marketing campaign by pooling resources from FireMed agencies, clients, and Life Flight. Springfield provides program
administration and coordination, marketing, customer support, and data entry for
the City of Eugene, Lane Rural Fire/Rescue, and Life Flight Network.
Life Flight Network, LLC pays Springfield a proportionate share of advertising
and marketing expenses for FireMed to advertise and process Life Flight memberships as part of our annual membership campaign. For FY15 Life
Flights’ contribution to the marketing campaign was $97,345. For an additional $45 fee – the FireMed Plus option – Life Flight provides air medical coverage for approximately 13,427 area households. Life Flight memberships have increased
each year, with FY15 numbers expected to see a small increase.
