Medical Baseline Allowance Program 概述

The Medical Baseline Allowance Program provides an additional amount of gas and electricity at the lowest rates for residential customers.  It is not a discount or a rebate.  

Anyone who uses certain medical devices or needs space heating or air conditioning because of  a medical condition may qualify.  We recognize certain needs require increased  energy use and offer this program to help reduce your monthly bill.   

 

如何获得资格  

  • You must have a qualifying medical condition or use qualifying medical equipment. See full list below. 
  • Fill out a "New Application," have it certified by your physician and return it to the address listed on the application.  
  • The person with the qualifying medical condition  must live at the address on the application.  Their name does not need to be on the bill, but the person whose name is on the  bill must sign the application.

Power 中断 and Other Emergencies

While we do our best to avoid outages, we cannot guarantee that the power will always be on.  Especially if you live in high fire risk areas.  We'll always attempt to notify you in advance of a state-directed power outage, which is why it's important we have your most up-to-date contact information.  然而,如果 you're in a life-threatening situation and you  require medical equipment for life support 请  呼叫 911.

If possible, you should also make arrangements for a back-up power supply in case of an outage.  If you'll be using a generator during an outage, state law requires that you 呼叫 and notify us that you have a generator.  

During high fire risk weather conditions, a Public 安全 Power Shutoff (PSPS) may be 呼叫ed as a last resort to help prevent potential wildfires.  To understand more and be prepared visit our  Public 安全 Power Shutoff 网页.
