What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually covers
The City of Southgate, in Wayne County, licenses businesses that provide medical transportation services within the city — non-emergency medical transport and ambulance operators. As a condition of that local license, the city requires a surety bond.
The bond is a compliance-and-consumer-protection guarantee to the city: it backs the operator’s adherence to the city’s licensing terms and ordinances governing how medical transport is provided to residents. If the operator violates those terms, the city — or a harmed party — can recover against the bond.
It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety, and the City of Southgate (the obligee). It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Enter the amount the city set; premiums start from $100 and no credit check up to $100,000.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
