For the purposes of this part, all ambulance providers shall file an annual cost and utilization report reflecting the most recently completed calendar year.
The submitted cost and utilization report must include:

The cost and utilization report must be filed with the bureau no later than May 31 of each calendar year and must contain data from the previous calendar year. The bureau shall assess a penalty of one hundred dollars ($100) for each day that an ambulance provider does not submit a cost and utilization report in compliance with this section.
