Re: Financial Disclosures Pursuant to Chapter 112,
Florida Statutes
Dear Mr. Hill:
Chapter 112, Florida Statutes, requires that "state
officers, specified employees , local officers, and persons
seeking to qualify as candidates for state or local office"
shall file disclosures of financial interest. Section
112. 3145 defines "local officer" as:
"Any appointed member of a board, commission,
authorityi'community college district board of
trustees, or counsel of any political subdivision
of the state, excluding any member of an advisory
board. "
The Emergency Medical Services Advisory Council is
purely an "advisory body. " Therefore it is not required that
members of the Emergency Medical Services Advisory Council
file financial disclosure statements pursuant to Chapter 112,
Florida Statutes.
If you have any questions or comments concerning
financial disclosure please do not hesitate to contact me at
your convenience.
Ver truly yours,
A„,77. ,/eLog.

Dear Mr. Chairman, •
Referring to the "Current and Proposed Rate Structure"
in the 1983/84 budget I find the "Precautionary I.V./
Monitor Surcharge" listed as $35 .00 which would save
the patient only $50.00 instead of $60.00 as the report
of the Task Force suggested.
The surcharge should only be $25.00, namely the charge
for BLS. Of course "I .V. Charge-Start" in amount of $5 .00
and the cost of the I .V. fluid is added.
•
On the other side I feel that the "First Aid Charge (No
Transport) " in amount of S 35 .00 is too low and en-
courages abuse. The regular charge . of BLS should be
added whenever an examination was performed or first
aid (bandages etc . ) rendered.
Finally I oppose any increase in the present rate struc-
1 tore which will not be understood by the public and will
only create bad feelings toward MS. The difference in
net income from EMS revenues for 83/84 with a 9;o rate in-
crease amounts only to "$50 ,387" which constitute about
3 . 5% of a budget of approximately 1. 5 Million. I am sure
that these $50,387 can be recovered somewhere by the County
without any property tax increase.
i•;r. Chairman, please bring the proposed Rate Increase up
to a vote by EMSAC . I Re pectfull '"7

Re: EMSAC Special Task Force Report
This is to respond to the County Manager' s concern with Item III,
FINANCIAL MONITORING COMMITTEE, of the EMSAC Report, where the Committee
calls for a consolidation of ambulance costs and elimination of "duplication"
of similar items.
The County' s financial reporting system is designed to meet the needs
of a variety of users: department directors, division administrators, the
county manager, special committees, elected officials, the general public,
etc. Accordingly, financial information is progressively summarized to
accomodate this hierarchy of reporting requirements. For example, under
the expenditure category Other Services and Charges, which includes all
operating expenditures other than personal services, materials and supplies,
or capital outlay, E.M. S. uses over thirty accounts. Most of these accounts
were created to meet management needs to track expenditures at a very
detailed level. If EMSAC perceives a need for less detail, we can design
a report showing expenditures by class within a category, which is less
detailed than the report required by management. This might reduce the
thirty or so accounts to perhaps nine classes of accounts. The compression
of object codes into the object class of Repairs & Maintenance, for instance,
would consolidate eleven E.M.S. accounts, for EMSAC reporting purposes .
The EMSAC Report does not elaborate on why it was "difficult to es-
tablish a total cost of the system. " E.M.S. is provided the following
monthly financial statements:
o Computer Print-outs:
° O Expenditure Detail by Fund (CCOI)
" Detail Listing of Revenues Vs. Budget (A203)
°° Detail Fund Balance by Accounting Distribution (A66)
°O Balance Sheet (F100)
'° Statement of Revenue and Expense (F140)
• Typewritten Reports:
°' Balance Sheet
° ' Income Statement
° ' Statement of Changes in Financial Position
It is suspected that misunderstandings might occur because of inherent
difference between governmental and commercial accounting. The County' s
budget follows the governmental format in planning for the flow of funds
(usually cash) and may include expenditures for equipment and principal
on debt and revenues from inter-fund transfers and debt proceeds, which
for purposes of commercial, or proprietary, accounting is neither expense
nor revenue . It is important for the users of financial statements for
proprietary funds, which include enterprise and internal service funds, to
understand the uses of budgetary reports which indicate flow of funds
(governmental accounting) and income statements which match revenues with
expenses (commercial or proprietary accounting) .

EMSAC Special Task Force Report Page 2
The Committee ' s recommendation regarding fringe benefits relates to
policies developed between the County Manager and the Board of County
Commissioners .
It is hoped that this memo adequately responds to the Committee' s
financial reporting concerns .
