COLLECTION PROCEDURE FOR DELINQUENT AMBULANCE ACCOUNTS
Attached to t1Ms memo you will find a detailed summary of ambulance aservice billings aid collections
April of 1967. We will present to you each month such a breakdown so that you might be apprised of the
I
ondition of the operations.

L�
You will note the first three months of our operation (October through December) has resulted in an 82% collection,
refore, there is remaining just under $900 in accounts receivable which are 120 days or over old. The urer.�xc.;
ide city limits and outside city limits breakdown is also quite interesting. This breakdown is by the originati.cA
the ambulance trip either outside or inside and not by where the person resides.
Our collection procedure has been as follows:
(1) Original statement for ambulance service sent out about seven to ten days after the incident.
(2) After accounts are at least thirty. (30) days old, letters are sent out under my signature re
or notification if insurance is being processed. This letter indicates that other action might
ting payment)
required.
This procedure has proved to be quite effective, but of course there will always be a few who will makelno effort
pay the charges. It is for the 20% or so who will not pay (as the averages look right now) that I would like you
consider adding a step to our collection procedure. This would be the employment of a collection service to
.tact and hake efforts to collect all accounts receivable over one hundred twenty (120) days old which apparently
not being processed for insurance.. I have asked and received.proposals from Banks Creditor Service and Northwest
ansas Collection Service, both of Fayetteville to handle collection of 120 day old accounts. Both present about
same proposal:
(1) A fee of 33 1/3% will be charged for all accounts collected which are $10 and over.
(2) A fee of 50% will be charged for all accounts collected which
(A) Are under $10.
(b) Are over 180 days old.
(c) Must be forwarded to agents in other cities for collection.
(E) A Yee of $2.50 will be charged if account is found to be under insurance claim.
(4) If suit is filed for judgment, city to advance court costs. .

to employ accounts.

APPOINTMENT TO REGIONAL AIRPORT STEERING COMMITTEE
per prior authorization of the City Board of Directors, a meeting of City, County, Chamber and other int
ties on Regional Airport development was held on May 9. About twenty-five (25) people attended this mem
discuss alternate methods of organizing a regional airport authority and to discuss Agreement terms for

After much discussion, it was unanimously decided that this meeting would recommend to the governing bo
land county judges that appointments be made to a steering committee composed of eight members with a ni
member to be selected by theeight. This nine member steering committee would prepare and recommend to
five cities and two counties .an Agreement to create, fund and designate powers to a Northwest Arkansas
' Regional Airport Authority. •It was anticipated by those at this meeting that the nine member steering
committee would become the first regional airport authority with the same representation as now designs
lAppointments to the steeling committee would be as follows: one each by the governing bodies of Bentonvi.
Airport Steering Fayetteville, Rogers, Siloam Springs and Springdale for five members; one by the Benton County Judge and '
Committee I by the Washington County Judge for three and a total of eight.- This would be.divided four from each coup
(Continued) These eight would then select a ninth member. City Manager•Gerald Fox was also asked to act as temporary
chairman of the steering committee until it can organize and select its own presiding officers.
t would be myrecommendation•that the City Board of Directors proceed with appointment of one person to
egional Steering Committee. Because the initial stages of this Regional Airport Authority are going to '
he most impobtant, that is, formulation of the agreement, site selection, financing of construction, etc
t would seem to me that someone directly connected with the city ought to be appointed. This could be
omeone from the City Board•itself or someone from the administrative staff. Your action on this matter
311 be appreciated.
