\n Medicare EMS, founded in June 2020, provides “world-class” pre-hospital care and education across the UK.\n<\/p>\n
\n It offers medical support at venues and racecourses throughout the country, as well as providing ongoing support for the NHS.\n<\/p>\n
\n The company describes itself as “more than just a service provider” on its website, emphasising its commitment to supporting NHS ambulance services, delivering medical education, and safeguarding event attendees and staff.\n<\/p>\n
\n Medicare EMS operates from three locations in Chelmsford, Coventry, and Hartlepool.\n<\/p>\n
\n The company had expanded earlier this year with the acquisition of UK Event Medical Services (UKEMS) and Elite EMS in March.\n<\/p>\n
\n At the time, Medicare EMS said: “These strategic additions mark a bold step forward, combining our collective expertise to create a stronger, more versatile organization dedicated to patient care and service innovation.”\n<\/p>\n
Medicare EMS enters administration after 20 years<\/p>\n
\n Despite this expansion, Medicare EMS has now entered administration.\n<\/p>\n
\n Dominik Thiel-Czerwinke and Louise Donna Baxter of BTG Begbies Traynor were appointed joint administrators on September 16, according to The Gazette.\n<\/p>\n
What happens when a company goes into administration?<\/p>\n
\n When a company enters administration, it means that it is unable to pay expenses, debts, or\u00a0other\u00a0liabilities, according to SquareUp.com.\n<\/p>\n
\n Companies House adds: “When a company goes into administration, they have entered a legal process (under the Insolvency Act 1986) with the aim of achieving one of the statutory objectives of an administration. This may be to rescue a viable business that is insolvent due to cashflow problems.\n<\/p>\n
\n “An appointment of an administrator (a licensed insolvency practitioner) will be made by directors, a creditor or the court to fulfil the administration process.”\n<\/p>\n
\n A statutory moratorium is put in place once a company enters administration, giving it “breathing space” to allow for financial restructuring plans to be drawn up free from creditor enforcement actions.\n<\/p>\n
\n A company can continue to trade while in administration, but daily management and control are handed over to the administrators.\n<\/p>\n
\n Companies House continues: “Within 8 weeks it is the administrators\u2019 role to formulate administration proposals.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Creditors are then asked to vote by a decision procedure to approve the administrators\u2019 proposals.\n<\/p>\n
\n “If the administration involves a sale of all or part of the company\u2019s business, the proceeds (after the costs of the procedure) will be distributed to creditors in a statutory order of priority.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Administration will end automatically after 12 months unless the administrator asks the court or creditors for an extension.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\n Through administration, a company can be:\n<\/p>\n
Rescued and passed back to the directors<\/p>\n
Enter liquidation<\/p>\n
Be dissolved<\/p>\n
