The Teton County Board of County Commissioners unanimously approved the county voucher run for Jan. 27, 2025, during a morning voucher meeting.

The board voted to approve a voucher run “in the amount of 2,262,400 and $22.23,” according to Commissioner Probst, who moved to approve the voucher register. Commissioner Gardiner seconded the motion. Chairman Newcomb called for the vote and commissioners responded “Aye.”

The vote followed a short discussion about one line item tied to ambulance billing. Commissioner Probst said he had been “hurrying through” vouchers and noted a Fire/EMS voucher for ambulance services showed invoices had been sent to a former employee. Fire Chief Mike Moyer said the county’s billing vendor, Quick Med Claims, which handles ambulance-transport billing and takes a commission, had performed an internal audit and identified multiple months over a two-year period that had not been billed. Chief Moyer said staff are “chasing down” why the company missed those months and are reviewing county processes to prevent recurrence.

Chairman Newcomb asked for clarification on which ambulance services were affected; Chief Moyer responded that the charges were for the county’s ambulance transports handled by Quick Med Claims and confirmed the county is following up with the vendor.

After the brief exchange the board approved the voucher run and moved on to other business.
