Does anyone know the latest on the LA County EOAs? Last I heard is that AMR gave up the fight to Care but Schaefer is still fighting it.

While not official, I did run into a Schaefer crew on a transfer at MLK last night, said that yeah, their company is still appealing the ruling and all that, said AMR did the same thing 10years ago when they lost the EOA to Schaefer in the first place, they didn't sound super hopeful they'd keep it....but said they're still running it like normal in the meantime.

Haven't heard anything about AMR's area in the south SGV on whether or not they're still appealing or not

I'm down south for a family member on the way out. Took a cruise to clear my head. Schaefers still running Pomona. Had a chat with an old emt I knew at a taco stand per him they are still fighting and towns like Pomona want to keep Schaefer.

Good for them, fish. The little mom n' pop fighting the borg. They have a rich history with P-town; least that's my understanding.

Oh definitely. I remember Ptown fire and Schaefer medics. Than LAco came in.
Alot of these outlying towns like Claremont which are small have very strong decade running relationships. The only way Care gains zones is cash.

Alas, the glory days. Lynwood FD and their hideous lime green fire trucks.

R.I.P.- Adam Ambulance and their ALS paramedic days.

Getting news from multiple sources that Care will start service to the San Gabriel valley and 210 corridor on July 1st. I am also getting news that Amr has been awarded the Providence contract kicking out Liberty.

I just heard the same thing today. but the date was june 1st. either way that's coming up fast. the person telling me the rumor also added that care wants to back out of their oc contracts a focus solely on LA. I understand they might have spread themselves so thin, but I would have assume oc would've been more profitable. can anyone lend to the credibility of this rumor?

There is an internal email circulating at Care stating the LAco eoa contract reviews have again ruled in their favor and that the board of supervisors will make the final decision in May with the contracts going into affect on July 1st.

As of yet amr and Schaefer have not released any employee memos to verify this. I can only verify that the board of supervisors will make the final decision and they have until June to do so.

Honestly nothing is set in stone until the board of supervisors take a vote on it. Everything else is just rumors until then. Some wild ones I've heard so far is Amr will pull out of the av if they don't keep the sgv and that Schaefer is planning to file a lawsuit if they loose. Lol

Sounds like CARE may be biting off more than they can chew. Enter- AMR of the early 2000's: part deux.

I know this isn't in LA County, but I just heard that AmeriCare won the Garden Grove contract. Anybody have any other details?

(Also, there isn't an internal email going around Care about the EOAs)
