The Logan Emergency Ambulance Service Authority will cut back on the ambulances it runs and overtime hours to try to erase about $1 million in debt. Running a fleet of ambulances cost about $8.3 million last year and officials said they need to trim that to about $7.2 million. Director Roger Bryant is already enacting cost-cutting measures by limiting overtime hours in Logan and the number of ambulances in daily operation. Bryant told Eyewitness News that recruitment, retention and reimbursement continue to be an issue, not only locally, but for ambulance agencies across the country. Logan County does have an ambulance levy that provides LEASA with about $1.5 million each year.
